May: A Month of Renewal and Community Progress
May is a time of renewal and growth, and as your city Councilmember, I’m inspired by the energy and potential of our community. Together, we continue to build a city that thrives—The Center of What’s Possible—where innovation meets compassion, and every voice is heard. Let’s make this month one of progress and unity. Thank you for being an essential part of what makes our city extraordinary.
