I want to be clear that this annual archive is not intended as a resume/CV or a productivity tracker. Instead, as a disabled person, I have limited spoons, and I often choose to use those spoons on the projects and initiatives described in my Impact statement. Since it often feels like there are areas of my life where I am “falling behind” and my life trajectory is operating on a different pace than a lot of people, I want to uplift where I am concentrating my time and efforts. Additionally, I am an interdisciplinary creative, and I don’t want to be known for just doing one particular thing. This is an effort to contextualize more visible work, with the less visible efforts that often go alongside it. Lastly, I am someone who has struggled with chronic suicidal thoughts for much of my life, in part because of social messaging that I am not enough as a mad, disabled, and queer person trying to follow my own compass. Therefore, this is a tool intended to help me block out that noise and remind myself that another year of my life did in fact matter.
