This audio is extracted from a video recording, which was mentioned but will not be released. Instead the transcripts of all my podcasts will be available as a document rather than just captions across platforms to hopefully expand access to these wondersful stories.

I was joined by my mentor, Dr.John Zilvinskis- An associate professor in the Student Affairs Administration program in the College for Community and Public Affairs.Up until minute 20, we learn about John, his identity, and his journey with Disability and on the road to Higher Ed. From minutes 20 until minute 40, I talk about my journey deciding to pursue a college career and falling in love with univeristy after being so de-motivated to come to Binghamton or any school at all!
