shared my story at work!

For 18 years, members of the LGBTQ+ community and allies at work have been sharing stories of their journey inside the company via our annual Pride Journal. For the past three years, we've also been sharing those stories externally (just in time for me to come out and include my own!). You can read some of my thoughts - along with amazing accounts from some of my coworkers - on Pfizer.com. Happy Pride!

My name is Jess (she/her). I'm a "digital professional," a gal who loves many nerdy things, and a biiiig fan of LEGO bricks. And I happen to be trans!

No worries! It has been an educational journey for me too :). If this is a new topic for you, then I recommend starting here:

City Hall in progress

building spotlight

I bought a bunch of sand green slope bricks knowing they were fairly rare. But it took a while deciding what to do with them.

My first thought was that they looked like “government green:” I could easily imagine them on a D.C. rooftop.

And so my "City Hall" modular was born, aiming for something slightly more substantial than the official Town Hall set.

It's finally complete! After a nearly three-year hiatus I finally finished the interior of the building, in large parts thanks to streaming on Twitch!
