Growing up as a queer kid in Alabama, I spent a great deal of my life hiding or purposely blending in, fearing for my own safety at times. After college, I began my career in the field of education and spent time teaching English abroad in Japan, becoming professionally socialized in an environment of humility and community-first mentality – values I have carried with me into all of my roles.  

CIC Worldwide Community,

Echoing the voices of many others in the innovation community, I wanted to share that we at CIC are, and have always been, supportive of international immigration for honest and law-abiding individuals.  We have both a moral obligation to help others in need, and a simple, personal benefit to our countries when we are more diverse.
