I love photographing dancers from the Tulsa Ballet. They are highly technical dancers and have beautiful lines, so it makes my job super easy because every shot is pretty much perfect

Now he’s using “play” violence to entertain his child. It’s distressing.

Sitting behind a family on a plane with three crying kids. Father of the year is watching some comedy video with no headphones while the kids scream and mom tries to console them.

Heard from multiple people that they weren’t sure they’d return home to a job with the shutdown happening… absolutely insane! We need more Natives in federal offices and positions because our communities are impacted so much more by federal policies.

One guy was telling me about how all his leads for jobs just kind of stopped after trump got into office. He was even told that if they hired him he’d be let go soon because he would be considered DEI as a veteran and Native. Even told that his name makes him stand out as “DEI”.

This AISES conference feels different. There’s a lot of anxiety and fear in the air. Usually there are a lot of government sponsored orgs and institutions here recruiting but they’re not this year. I’ve had multiple ppl tell me they’re worried about losing funding any day.

Been pretty depressed past couple of weeks but feeling gratitude to be among many amazing Indigenous professionals at AISES this week. I’m a part of the Rematriation program which brings Native women in STEM together. It can be so lonely being the only nativer person in many of these places

'The Lowdown' isn't just a good show. It's a good hang
