Thank you to Columbia Business School Dean Costis Maglaras, CBS President and our CBS alumni community for personally inviting the Columbia Alumni Association of DFW board—and for the thoughtful gift! 🦁💙

An insightful evening on CBS’s achievements and vision for the future:

🔹 AI as a central priority: Integrating AI into teaching, research, and school operations, with investments in faculty, programs, and hands-on learning.

🔹 Deeper NYC ties: Strengthening connections with startups, investors, and industry—with a vision for Columbia to be to NYC what Stanford is to Silicon Valley.

🔹 Entrepreneurial momentum: 26 alumni-built unicorns—fourth among MBA programs, behind only Stanford, Wharton, and Harvard—plus threefold growth in student startups since 2019 and $750,000 awarded annually to founders.

🔹 Evolving career paths: Expanding opportunities in technology and entrepreneurship while building on CBS’s strengths in finance and consulting.

🔹 Greater visibility and global impact: Amplifying faculty thought leadership and connecting alumni worldwide through shared expertise, mentorship, and lifelong learning.

Fresh off Columbia Professor Michael Woodford’s Nobel Prize in Economics, CAADFW celebrated another successful Columbia DFW Speaker Series on AI, macroeconomic trends, and decision-making! 🦁💙

The evening was highly interactive, with attendees asking thoughtful questions about AI infrastructure, emerging AI trends, and the broader economic outlook.

Thank you to our speaker, Asif Haider; our moderator and President, @inasturlis ; and Haynes and Boone for hosting us. Thanks to fellow Columbia alumni for making this possible and our alumni and broader DFW community for joining us.

A snapshot of a memorable night. 📸

If you could not tell, I was very proud of the decorations but I am even more proud of the people in my life. These incredible humans have been by my side and continue to be the most loving, caring, and supportive souls. What a privilege it is to be surrounded by this many genuine and real people. I love each and every one of you dearly and am so grateful for your friendship.

Should we do a 4th holiday party next year? 🤔 I guess it is TBD ✨

I never understand why my friends agree to go along with my crazy ideas 🤣 but somehow, every project turns out dope! And the memories… unforgettable!

I’m truly grateful for everyone who’s ever been a part of my wild ideas and projects. You guys help turn my vision into reality every single time.

These pics have never been posted before , they’re from our 2023 video shoot, a remix of Sweet Home Alabama. Our version? Sweet Homes I Will Sell Ya 🤪

Head to YouTube and give it a search... You won’t be disappointed 🥹

I have some HUGE SURPRISES COMING IN 2026!!!
