👋 Meet Jorge!

Family is what motivates him every day. He strives to make them proud while continuing to grow and find balance in his own life.

Outside of the office, Jorge enjoys running and is already preparing for his 8th marathon in 2026 🏃‍♂️

One of his favorite memories is hosting a pizza party for his family, bringing everyone together for great food and even better company 🍕❤️

Fun fact: Jorge has co-hosted and produced multiple podcasts and worked on a storytelling project that celebrated the diversity and unique experiences of people across Chicago 🎙️🌆

His favorite song is Kick, Push by Lupe Fiasco because it reminds him of the resilience needed to overcome life’s challenges and keep moving forward.

Thank you, Jorge, for always bringing great energy and a positive attitude to the office every day! 🙌😊 taken in Jennifer Santiago-State Farm by @thelopez23

Miles for those we lost in service. Though they are no longer here, we have to keep their names & memories alive. I’ve posted something similar years ago. It’s been too long since I’ve spoken their names, but they’ve been on my mind quite a lot the last couple weeks. So, this is for them. Please swipe through the pictures. by @thelopez23

“Laughing at or belittling the accomplishments of your women peers-especially when they match or surpass yours—is peak toxic masculinity.”

The US Men hockey team’s gold medal locker room celebration has been talked about a lot already. But…

… there’s a reason why it’s very important to continue to bring it up. Especially when it’s so easily dismissed by the players themselves. We men need to be better than that and should not hesitate to call out toxic masculinity when it presents itself. Fortunately, most of the guys I know that will read this already completely understand that. But it’s also important that we call it out publicly so the young men in our lives know it’s okay to call it out too. We need to set the example that being judged by other men (or boys) for being “soft” or “too sensitive” for standing up against misogynistic acts and ideals pales in comparison to doing what’s right by advocating for women.

I have failed at this many times in my life. I have not been the best advocate. But it’s never too late to change and to grow. Because the work it takes for personal growth as a man is nothing compared to the toxicity of men that women have to endure on a daily basis. We have to be better examples for the young men in our lives for the sake of our mothers, sisters, and friends. It is not an exaggeration to say that their very lives depend on it. by @thelopez23
