I invited Dr. Kari-Lyn Sakuma to come on the show to share her 2020 PANDEMIC experience as a Public Health Educator. After we stroll down memory lane of our college years together at The University of Southern California, she walks us through her academic journey that lead her to her recent Promotion and Tenure! Congratulations Kari!
With all the sudden change and stress that many people in her community were going through during Quarantine, she found comfort, balance and activity to keep her busy during a period of INSOMNIA....in the process of sewing straight lines.
When she couldn't sleep and with the lack of access to regular coping mechanisms of stress, she created a beautiful intricately designed QUILT out of the scraps left over from the community's efforts to make thousands of masks for the public, teachers and healthcare workers.
The process gave her relief and focus knowing that the control of sewing straight lines would result in a product that would have beautiful meaning to her family in the end.
Thank you Kari for your service in educating our community. Your work is important, relevant, and very much appreciated!
