Midd in a Minute: Damian Washington ’03
From Posse to Purpose
Damian Washington ’03 is an actor, content creator, and multiple sclerosis advocate whose work is rooted in vulnerability and storytelling. After studying theater at Middlebury, Damian built a career in acting while using his voice to raise awareness about living with MS. In this Midd in a Minute video, Damian reflects on his Middlebury experience as a Posse Scholar, the mentors who helped shape his path, and how embracing vulnerability became both his strength as a performer and the foundation of his advocacy.
“There’s power in the vulnerability of sharing one’s perspective and one’s story… because when other people see you’re vulnerable, it gives them the space for them to be vulnerable.”
