For my second episode of Live Questions, I was joined by one of the first new friends that I made when I moved to Winston-Salem, NC — Veronica Kavass. She, her husband and her baby daughter moved from New Orleans to Camel City within weeks of Phillip and I moving from Austin, and it was friendship-at-first-sight.
📷 Our first photo together was taken June 26th, 2022 — just a week after we met, at a beautiful “sunflower extravaganza" at a local farm. Everyone in this (admittedly blurry) picture had just moved to Winston-Salem to begin a fresh chapter in life, and we were all feeling the excitement and curiosity of the New Beginning.
We quickly became close friends, bonding over things like our mutual stints in criminal defense investigation, love of jazz and foodie restaurants, and the way we’d both completed two master degrees but were still figuring out our chosen vocations in this modern labor market.
Four years, and many a’ Mardi Gras party & crawfish boil later, we are still friends and still exploring our Live Questions together. I hope you enjoy getting to know V in this conversation, and if you want to connect with her, just let me know!
🎶 - Both the intro and newly added (!) outro music are original pieces by Phillip Nevels with Deborah Ellis Suárez. Thankful for their creative addition to this experiment!
