My Gap Year: how I really felt

Reflecting on and examining my unconventional gap year was a special opportunity for me. I hadn’t realized how many details I had stuffed away that needed to be resurfaced! I also was amazed to discover how much I had misremembered with certainty — even though I know how malleable our memories are.

It was an incredible honor to be on Stories from the Stage, and discover how alive and well the art of storytelling is.
