From debuting my first book to marching for change — full circle 🔥
Grateful to be featured in The Pocono Record and on TV for doing what matters most: using my voice. 💜

#NoKings #Democracy #CivilRights #mediacoverage
A large crowd of protesters gathers in East Stroudsburg for the “No Kings” rally, holding colorful signs and banners. One sign reads, “In America, we should not have to protect democracy from the president — we have the Constitution.” Another says “RESIST” in bold black and yellow letters. A man wearing a yellow safety vest stands at the front holding papers, speaking to the crowd. To his right, a woman in a black T-shirt reading “With Our Privilege” stands beside a large banner that says “No Kings.” The top of the image shows the WNEP 16 News Station logo, with the caption below reading: “Peaceful protest in Monroe County.” A large group of protesters marches along a sidewalk in Monroe County holding signs and banners during the “No Kings” protest against Donald Trump. At the front, two women carry a large orange and black banner that reads “RESIST.” Other visible signs include “No Kings — Protect the Constitution,” “ICE Agents = Criminals,” and “I ❤️ USA!” The crowd extends far back, with dozens of people walking in a long line beside a row of parked cars. Trees and a grassy hill border the scene under a bright, cloudy sky. A Pocono Record article titled “No Kings marchers in Monroe County joined millions across country in protest of Trump,” written by Max Augugliaro and published on October 21, 2025, features three protest photos. The first shows a large crowd filling a downtown street lined with brick buildings, holding signs and banners. The second image shows a woman in a black shirt and hat speaking passionately into a microphone beside another woman dressed in black with a white sweater tied around her waist. The speaker’s shirt reads “No More Without Our Privilege.” The third image shows marchers walking along a road carrying signs and an American flag, including one reading “Trickle down? Not for the rich.” The atmosphere is peaceful and energized, with people of all ages participating. A Pocono Record article titled “East Stroudsburg author promotes inclusion and awareness for disabled,” written by Brian Myszkowski and published on March 31, 2022, features a smiling woman—author Jannesy DeLeon—sitting on a white couch in a warmly lit living room. She’s wearing a navy blue blazer, white shirt, and jeans, holding up her colorful children’s book Tag! You’re It! A Story on Inclusion with Gabby & Nicky. Behind her is a wooden railing, vases, and a floral painting. The caption below announces her upcoming book launch event at the Pocono Family YMCA.

Today, hundreds of Education Department employees, especially from special education oversight, were laid off. They’re coming for our disabled community next. We can’t afford to be quiet. Our disabled kids need us to stay strong, stay loud, and stand together. #DisabilityRights

Don’t fall for the mailers. The GOP wants confusion, we need clarity: Vote YES to retain our PA Supreme Court justices this November. Our rights and democracy depend on

The whole “zero-sum game” mindset is a trap. The truth is, when we work together across lines of race and class, we all benefit.

This scene from Rogue One perfectly sums up the experience of living in America, right now.
a man wearing a helmet screams with his mouth open
Alt: A GIF from the climax of Rogue One, in which a Rebel fighter, wearing an elongated white half clamshell shaped helmet is pounding on the window of an airlock and screaming in terror, HELP US!!!! as, behind him, Darth Vader is mowing down everyone with his lightsaber.

Summer memories hit different when access is built in 🌊✨

Virginia Beach gave us ramps, beach wheelchairs, and a boardwalk — things that make joy possible for every family.

Accessibility isn’t a luxury. It’s the baseline.

This Labor Day, we stand for workers, not billionaires. Join our Bridge Brigade.
#WorkersOverBillionaires
Illustrated flyer with a drawing of a highway overpass. At the top of the overpass is a banner that reads “RESIST.” Below, bold text says “BRIDGE BRIGADE.” The flyer announces a Labor Day weekend protest on the Park Avenue overpass in Stroudsburg, with large print banners, signs, and flags. Event dates and times: Friday, August 29 from 4–8 pm, and Monday, September 1 from 12–7 pm. Notes at the bottom explain that it is a peaceful demonstration, not kid-friendly due to traffic, participants should secure loose items, and profanity should be avoided. At the bottom is the Indivisible Poconos logo.

I dipped out for a few months. Activism, caregiving, and burnout had me tapped out. But my community pulled me back.
