I am so happy that I got to have the warm and vibrant conversation with Johamy Morales. She is the current Educational Director at Seattle Children's Theatre and my boss and mentor. Johamy has a way of welcoming you in without overloading you. My guard was all the way down during this conversation as I leaned in and just absorbed all of the amazing stories that she shared. At her core Johamy is a story teller and it makes me extremely happy to be able to share her story with all of you. As always like and follow for future content.
