An absolute pleasure to serve this community for a second year! Lets make ILSSA a safe space to struggle in solidarity and advocate for students & recent grads ☺️ Follow @islsilssa.bsky.social to stay in the loop!

Let's make our work a little more inclusive 🤍 Excited to finally share "Realizations & re-mediations: Enabling expression and interaction in collective embodied activities for children with disabilities" in Learning, Culture, & Social Interaction 🙌 Shoutout to @jdanish.bsky.social for the support!

This paper has been in the works since we both started graduate school! So much credit to @zhoum56.bsky.social for pushing this through the finish line 👏
