1/ Excited to receive an ESRC IAA impact grant to create an interview training package for humanitarian contexts, where first responders are often community members working with NGO’s. As they have limited training in how to effectively document important memory evidence.

14 months ago I had to evacuate from Oxford High Schol when a fifteen year old opened fire and killed four of my classmates and injured seven more. Tonight, I am sitting under my desk at Michigan State Univeristy, once again texting everyone “I love you” When will this end?
