Rachel Dangermond
Author/Speaker/Facilitator/Mediator
In 2004, I created this blog as an outlet for my writing. Then months later, the 2005 Federal Flood that followed Katrina turned my life upside down. As an investigative journalist, I was blogging about the national and global tragedy that happened through the lens of my own life. From 2005 to 2015, I went from denial to determination, from a total dismantling to reinvention, from PTSD to resilience. I was one of few New Orleans bloggers who captured in real-time the tragedy that happened in New Orleans on an hourly and daily basis for over a decade.
