I love this portrait that Mark Adams gave me.
Hi; I’m janine.
Mom.
Baker, gardener, creative crafter.
Nonprofit Director.
Connector.
Queer.
Anxious, awkward, introvert.
I’m into sharing*.
I believe community is essential.
I’ve been isolated, excluded, and othered. I want the opposite of that for us.
We can’t all be good at everything, so let’s share what we know, what we can do and make, and what we have in abundance.
*Do you know the picture book, Plant a Kiss by Amy Krause Rosenthal and illustrated by Peter H. Reynolds? It’s like that.
