Keidaï Lee (hint: “hey, hi! It’s Keidaï” rhymes) is a proud restaurant kid, community college and Johns Hopkins University alumni (2022), and someone who constantly asks the question, “can people reach their potential no matter where they come from?” He is a freelance journalist for the Baltimore Banner, currently writing on gun violence, power, and forgiveness. He is also working on an animation studio startup and diversity training organization, “Color of My Voice”, which gives individuals a chance to rewrite their story in which they are surprisingly accepted as they are. As he continues to process what living in America means again after recently spending 15 months living in Paris, he looks for clues while playing dodgeball, dancing, or performing stand up comedy.
