You opened doors without hesitation,
shared your knowledge generously,
and helped people find their voice in this field.
When I entered the world of technology and social work,
you welcomed me into the conversation,
encouraged collaboration,
pushed my thinking, and expanded my reach.
I am grateful for every conversation, every project,
and every opportunity to learn alongside you.
Your contribution has been cut short;
however, your legacy lives on in the people you mentored,
the ideas you inspired,
