“Having Arabia on our team was a huge boost to our creativity, productivity, and culture. She implemented a new project management system that continues to be very successful for us. In addition, she led multiple leadership exercises that were vital to our product strategy, and always brought creative ideas and insight to the table. I have no doubt that Arabia would be a great add for any team or co-founder looking for an innovative ideator and problem solver.”

The poem is based off an accumulation of experiences and stories of both those told to me by friends and family members and mine. The two videos displaying side by side symbolizes the way that I and other suvivors move through the world. I wanted to show the contrast of what people see and what we actually go through.
