    Hey everyone! Hope you all are having a great week so far.

    Check out my latest column here. Recently, I got a chance to meet actress/writer/producer Felicia Day, who is a huge geek celebrity. She came to my alma mater as part of her tour for her new book “Embrace Your Weird.”

    I wrote about how Day’s work influenced my own, especially in terms of my column. Just as Day worked to change stigmas about geeks, I hope to challenge stereotypes about people with my disabilities through my writing.

    Do you have any takeaways from this column? Any Felicia Day fans here?

    Great article Kevin.  Sorry to admit I’m not familiar with Felicia Day, but it’s awesome that you got to meet someone you admire.  Great picture too.
