Every ribbon on that badge is a reason I show up for our schools.

The CMS Foundation Annual Luncheon was nothing short of spectacular (per usual), and was a reminder for why we invest so heavily in our local schools. Major shoutout to my homegirl and THE BEST Carrie Cook for the invitation out, and ALWAYS being a real one since our pre-teen days lol. It was wonderful seeing EVERYONE that I did!

Also, I want to give a BIG shoutout to Kevin Poirier and everything he is doing at Harry P. Harding University High School. He was even able to get all Harding University High School Community Partners to throw up the “U”!

Strong neighborhoods build strong schools. With bussing in CMS LONG gone, schools tend to reflect the resources and struggles or prosperity of the neighborhoods around them. There is a residual impact on our kids and schools when we are building together. Let’s keep building. 💪🏾

If you know me then you know how much I revere my history. The wisdom between these two brothers is limitless; and, the laughs are too 😂!!!

I’m humbled to have been named apart of the 2023 @cbjnewsroom Power 100 of Charlotte!!

This year’s crop recognizes “the region’s leaders in diversity, equity and inclusion. CBJ’s editorial staff spent months seeking out nominations, working through our contacts across companies big and small, and asking for the help of nonprofits and civic organizations to identify the DEI players who are setting the agenda here.”

I appreciate my squad! No one can accomplish anything great without a genuine and strong village wrapped around them.

Today, we gave the Westside a SMALL taste of what will occur over the next couple of years if elected to office. Community, Resources, Transparency, Connectivity. I cannot thank my team ENOUGH!!!
