Little did we know that we have a true WIZARD amongst us — DeAnna Pursai.

55276977894_78a670755b_q.jpgDeAnna, along with David Neale, serves as Co-Chair of the Rotary Club of San Jose Neurodiversity Committee. Their committee selected four outstanding Artist Award recipients, along with four exceptional Honorable Mentions.

It was a tremendous honor to attend the celebration and awards ceremony on Sunday, May 17, at the Goodwill Opportunity Center in San Jose. Most meaningful of all was witnessing DeAnna being recognized as a “WIZARD” for her extraordinary work, dedication, compassion, and leadership in advancing neurodiversity awareness and support through the arts.   She is a tireless advocate who continuously amplifies the voices of individuals who deserve to be seen, heard, valued, and celebrated. Her passion, kindness, and unwavering commitment are making a meaningful difference in the lives of so many in our community.  Thank you DeAnna for all you do.

Congratulations to all the talented artists and to DeAnna for making such a meaningful impact in our community.
