Hey! It's Camika and Sophia. A week before the pandemic, Camika DMed Sophia to get coffee, and we've been talking ever since. Fast forward to the end of 2020, and we're still talking, this time over Zoom, but always navigating what it means to be two 20-something-year-olds in the Midwest who have lofty ambitions, an affinity for art and literature, and never cease to have a boring conversation. So we're making a podcast and talking to exciting people. You don't want to miss it!
Stay tuned!
