I hope you’re having a wonderful day. This green girl is so excited because I get to see @wickedmovie with some of the ladies in my family! The world is going to see history be made because of @marissa_edob and @cesilycollette in the role of Nessarose. We finally have the genuine representation we’ve been waiting for, for twenty one years. I hope that this is the beginning of conversations that need to take place with @wicked_musical and Broadway as a whole about theaters becoming a place of employment for all people. All Bodies deserve to be Broadway bodies. O
If you could meet a historical figure, who would it be and why?
If I could meet a historical figure it would be Judy Heumann. I know that I actually met her a year before she passed away, but I would love to time travel to the 70s and be part of the H. E. W. Sit in.
Today @boundlessbabesociety asked How do you celebrate little wins? I need to get better at doing this. If I’m proud of myself I need to say so even if God is the only one who hears me.
A few days ago my friend @iamreneemarino asked her audience What would you tell your younger self that would help you today?
I would tell the younger me that there will be opportunities for me to influence others and be influenced by others, there is power in community. Secondly dance will change the way you feel about yourself and the way you move through the world.
Say it with Joy
Celebrate it with performance
Share it with pride
Today @boundlessbabesociety asked the question How do you get through hard times. For me, talking with God always helps in any situation, but when frustration comes up because of difficulties in movement or hearing too much opinion, being able to connect to one of my BBS Sisters is so helpful because I know that they have been through or are going through the same things I am. I love my sisters.

I sent @vp a message
Hi madam VP, my name is Marie Nicole Zimmerle I’m 42 And a disabled woman who lives in California. I am very afraid of my rights being taken away because Trump is in office. But I want you to know that my voice will not be silenced because of who our president is. I am a board member of Lanterman Regional Center In Los Angeles and I have recently stepped into my self-acceptance after many many years of denying my disabled body. I want you to know that I won’t be a voice that fights for our freedom and does it. Respectfully
I don’t believe this election went the way that I wanted it to go, and frankly I’m scared for my freedom as a disabled woman and a woman in general
