…as I was saying last night. Waiting for the talking point: “He hasn’t already taken office and is already Making America Great Again.” 😒🤦🏻‍♂️

There’s a lot of confusion of social media. In my opinion, social media outgrew the definition of social media. TikTok, Instagram, and other similar platforms have become merchant ecosystems for small businesses and local communities. Is everything in these platforms age appropriate? Absolutely not.

From being a panel to moderating one, we’ve come full circle. Tonight’s Agenda Alexandria was a dense topic: broadband. Something that enables everything else, but isn’t necessarily seen (yet) as essential. Tonight’s conversation was possible thanks to a superb panel of professionals.

Yesterday Mayor @justindotnet.bsky.social and I celebrated Catharine Rice after a decade of service on the City’s Commission on Information Technology. Catharine has been instrumental in pushing towards access and digital equity in our community.

Tonight is one of those evenings where I’m reminded of how humbled I am to have the opportunity to be part of the list of Agenda Alexandria past chairs. Mentors, friends, and individuals who care passionately about our community in Alexandria, VA.

Full house at the Lyceum tonight as MetroStage presents “A Gospel Christmas.” Spectacular music in this extraordinary program starring one of Jazz and Gospel music's most quintessential singers Robert E. Person.

I’m humbled to serve as Chair of MetroStage. I look forward to working with our Producing Artistic Director, the brilliant Carolyn Griffin, along with the rest of the Board of Trustees. Help us get in the door of our new theater (seen behind us) at www.metrostage.org
