y’all mind if i highlight my community again ??

back working in GGP this wk ~ thinking abt the wild run thru august & the gnarly ride this past yr in general has been.

SF has a relentless way of providing the right community just when you need it most & miss universe was rlly thinking ahead on this one. i’m being v honest when i say i wouldn’t be anywhere near the man i am today if it wasn’t for these 2 ~~ grateful for the endless love // guidance // encouragement from my favorite support system in the City xx

thx for always providing me the space to grow 🌻
excited to keep blooming w y’all ~~ 💟

dear chat,

if you told me 8+ yrs ago this random girly from miami i met on twitter summer 2016 would be such a crucial piece to my west coast community puzzle, i probably would have given you a good little chuckle.. ! but here we still are, hundreds of dance floors l8r with no end in sight ~~~ there’s a million pros to having miss dani disco in your corner but my favorite will always be how hard she rides for her community ~

to be in her presence is to know love ~~
here’s to our next chapter together, moving with more intention & our continued growth over the next 8 💟
