When young people from my old neighborhood on the South Side see the words “You are America” on the exterior of the Obama Presidential Center, I hope they believe it. Because they matter. They belong. And they have the power to shape this country for the better.
Today, we’re excited to unveil the words that will appear on the exterior of the Obama Presidential Center Museum—a place to learn from history that will also offer future leaders inspiration and tools to write chapters of their own. Watch the video below to see for yourself:

My first attempts to illustrate our new President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris. Practice makes perfect...hoping to create better portraits in the future.

I love what book agent Regina Brooks has said: "Collaboration makes a book successful". She allows author and illustrator to work together on a book. Yay! I could not agree more! #scbwi #SCBWISummerSpec #scbwibird

SCBWI: Summer Spectacular is really great! I've rewatched illustrators LeUyen Pham and Dan Santat a couple times. So grateful for the recordings. I've taken copious notes and hoping to apply them ASAP! #SCBWIBird #scbwi #scbwisummerspectacular

This is my first SCBWI Conference, made possible by the pandemic! A golden lining to a very dark cloud. #scbwibird #SCBWISummerSpec

Listening to Sir Philip Pullman, author of so many books/movies including The Golden Compass at the SCBWI Summer Spectacular! "Where do I put the camera?" (excellent question) #SCBWISummerSpec #scbwibird

Two men in Providence de-escalated what was a violent mess of looting by simply standing in front of a storefront, talking to the folks ready to throw bricks and with respect, told them to go home. Key words: de-escalate = relationships respect
I’ve observed the dumbing down of the American population, in large part, because TV news gives us so little news from the world around us.

33 years ago today, I married my partner in mime. It’s a long and terrifying story (the mime piece), but we’re still together. ❤️

I had no clue that my son created a DnD character that was inspired by me. Not quite sure if I should be honored or embarrassed! I'm a Tortle! Who knew? I'm thinking Herbitha should have her own Twitter account and give out recipes and home spun advice! See the tweet below:

My DnD character, Herbitha Finfine! She’s an all-baking, all-embroidering, all-worries midwestern Tortle Druid, based on my mom 💚
