I hope with audiences what comes out is a partnership which is the theme. Let me tell you what I'm talking about, what you won't know unless you're a wheelchair user. I want people not to feel like I'm preaching at them. I'm coming to tell you what it's like and that's my goal --to have humor in it, to have advocacy in it, but to have people in the end feel like they're a team with me or like their allies...not to feel ashamed or embarrassed. This is not a victim story by any means. ~ Diana Romero Diana Romero Writer - Producer - Performer - Activist. I’m an award-winning writer/producer based in Los Angeles, specializing in detective procedurals, true crime, and family dramas. As a former social worker, I supported at-risk youth, which sparked my passion for social justice.
