Hi, it's JJ. This event was postponed from last month. Come see a snippet of Silent Partner, a feature film that I co-wrote. Tix are $20, as a part of a fundraiser.

I'll be there for the first half-hour. Hope to see you there.

DC Friends!

We are doing one of final sneak peeks of our feature film at Busboys and Poets on Tuesday, May 12. Tix are only $20 and will go to pay for the venue. I'll be speaking alongside my producing partners Roderick Lawrence (Arena Stage's Seven Guitars) and attorney and legacy coach Tonya Rutherford (ex-Verizon). When you arrive, we'll do a fun step and repeat and hand out questions to get you thinking about your own purpose and legacy while chatting with old and new friends before we start the film. Please join me and bring some friends!

Lots of love,
Salma
