My mentor [Rachel] taught me reflective practice and small, scrappy experimenting. Talking through [with her the] techniques of working with people was so useful. Rachel shared resources and helped me to look at ideas grounded in theory and deeper knowledge (like the history of [the term] “intersectionality”).

Rachel puts in the work to get to know people in the community. She attends local events, meets people and, most importantly, remembers them. There are so many times Rachel has connected people she has met to other artists and projects in the community.
