It’s been awhile since you’ve heard from me.

I’ve been gone for a minute but I’m back again. Some of you may know me from my time as a Senior Editor at Medium. I adored working with so many of you, editing your stories for Momentum and Level. Now I’m happy to be back as one of you — creating, for me.

A lot has happened while I’ve been away, but some things are still the same. We’re still in a pandemic. We’re still fighting for peace. And throughout this rocky period, I’m still Jada G.

I haven’t written for myself in quite some time. For now, I’m putting down my editorial superhero shield, and just being human me.
