2024 Brought me so many incredible memories! I have so much to be grateful for. etraintalks was chosen as a 2024 nonprofit of distinction,  by asmkevinmccarty & voted sacramentofavorites #1 Youth Development Program! 2024 was filled with endless book joy! I gave over 5000 new books to children in underserved communities, hospitals and schools! I met and spoke to thousands of kids across the country! From New York, to Illinois, to Michigan to California, to so many more states! I shared my book thoughts on gooddaysac & I worked my very first internship sacramentoliteracy! I even participated in the sacramentokings young entrepreneur night! I also had the privilege of participating in amazing community events, and I read books to children in schools virtually & in-person! My #advocacy work also was recognized by sanjuan_ssac & I was awarded the Spirit of San Juan honor! I’m filled with so much gratitude and pride! I also met in-person so many of my book heroes like, jamespontibooks lizamwiemer  mychal3ts christhebearbaron devpetty tphillipswriter pacylin mreyeswrites torreymaldonado & lisalschmid burlesot ♥️
I also had the honor of meeting kevinmccartyca and cm_talamantes 
2024 was also the year over 5000 givingtuesdayspark inspirational bookmarks were crafted in schools all across the country! 
 
Thank you to everyone who donated to my nonprofit, you’re the reason I get to share so many book smiles with kids in need! I’m grateful to everyone for supporting my #literacy journey!

Extra big THANK YOU to the one and only tvcody and the gooddaysac team for making 2024 unforgettable! 📺🥳
