Ali was one of my childhood friends. Some of the fondest memories of my childhood were sleepovers at the house on the lake with Ali, Dixie, and Kate. We lost touch when I moved away but Ali will always be a central part of my memories growing up. It’s not easy for me to accept that she is gone. I will always remember her smile and kind heart, so much like her mother. I hope they are with each other now, sharing eternity together.

I have just learned of Ali's death. I lived with Ali for a brief time during 2015-2016, in Powderhorn Park. Ali was a deep thinker and feeler, I could tell, like me, so had some good and meaningful conversations. Ali was also going through a lot at that time, but one night I was having a lot of abdominal pains and Ali set herself aside and took me to urgent care to get checked out. I remember her as someone curious, that loved to cook (good food!), travel, learn, and care for others. She thought outside the box, and really I am sure will be missed by all that knew her. This news broke my heart today, and I just hope that she is fully living and thriving, and gets to explore and continue to grow!

Speaking of Ali wanting to give a TED talk about her journey, here's us at the TEDx Minneapolis conference in 2016. I randomly got the tickets from someone who had plans to do the Ragnar the same weekend. We had a blast.

I met Ali when we enrolled in a summer study abroad program on Traditional Medicine & Healthcare Practices in northern India back in 2012. This program was an adventure that exposed us to new situations, experiences, and places we had never encountered before. Due to the extensive curriculum, we did a lot over the course of 6 weeks, spending many hours relying on each other and growing together. We learned so much about each other's lives, friends, families, health, fears, and dreams. Ali was a beautiful, kind, and giving soul who greatly valued the experiences she was given. A fun memory: We went to dip our feet in the Ganges, a sacred river that holds a lot of significance in the realms of religion, spirituality, life, and death. We knew that while the Ganges is sacred, it is also very polluted with waste from bodies, animals, and industries. But our determination to bathe in the sacred river overcame any hesitation. There were vendors by the river selling containers, and we both thought it would be cool to bring some of this sacred water back home with us. We gathered our sacred water in flimsy, low-quality plastic bottles, thinking how amazing it would be to take a piece of this important natural wonder back to the US. Fast forward to the future, and we both discovered, at separate moments and days, that each one of our bottles had leaked or broken in our luggage, soaking our belongings in sacred water. Perhaps we weren't the most rational young women at that point in our lives, but we shared the conviction of wanting to experience life to the fullest, even if it meant getting our clothing soaked in unknown dirty water.

This photo isn't the best quality but it is one that stands out in my mind of Ali in 2014. We were at a Perkins sitting around listening to Longkee (my then friend, now partner) talk about what it meant to have all these friends come out and spend time with him on his birthday. Ali used to joke with Longkee and I that she was the 'mastermind' behind setting us up as she had invited us over to where she lived at the time about a month after this photo was taken and we hit it off while playing banana-grams. I'll never forget the time that Ali took to get to know people in her life, how much she cared about the things that truly mattered, and how much she made me laugh. I'll be thankful for her friendship, always.

All of my photos with Ali are goofy, since our friendship was rooted in laughter. Here's one of my favorite more serious shots of her, when she came to visit me in Washington, DC. We're leaning back against the marble benches around the Washington Memorial trying to look alluring and sexy... a pose we could never hold long before bursting into giggles.
