I am incredibly pleased to announce I just signed my first book deal with @mitpress. A tweet about my experience as a Nuyorican navigating the corporate design world grew with the encouragement of @bobprior, @johnmaeda, and @kevinbethune. So much gratitude.
Coming 2024!
@ohrachelsmith No one would ever tell a man their work was cute or adorable. Iβve been called many things over my career and those words are two of them. Itβs sexist, plain and simple.
"My body gave my husband our first kiss. My body has sustained me through my career, giving me the energy to climb the corporate ladder with all its spikes. My body has allowed me to grow, birth, and nurture three beautiful children. My body deserves acceptance.If not now, when?"
In the darkness of my own grief of letting my daughter go, I found @meganmorrone story such a comfort to know, I was not alone.
Thank you for letting us share this beautiful piece.
Watching my 86-yr-old grandpa carry buckets of fuel to fill up the generator. Running to buy batteries for my dadβs fan bc itβs close to 90 degrees today. And relatives throwing out their groceries that have gone bad.
This is life in PR now. And weβre some of the lucky ones.
