I can’t quite pinpoint it yet but I always feel ~weird~ after visiting home. The RGV will always be an integral part of who I am but I don’t feel 100 percent myself here. Gotta heal that or maybe that’s fine! Idk! At least I have these HEB treasures to take back to New York. 🥰
Happy to be here! Let me introduce myself: I'm a Brooklyn-based journalist and audio producer. I've covered LGBTQ+ issues, Latine culture, reproductive health, and the climate crises for various pubs and podcasts. My latest project is working on my newsletter queerfutures.news. 🌈 💌
