Grateful to join @waltermasterson.bsky.social on stage at Cap City last night.

Austin really showed up!

Always good to share space with people who care enough to laugh and listen.

Stopped by @udemstx.com tonight with pizza for their midnight voter registration drive!

Every election matters, and there's 18 items on the ballot in Austin where it's important every student’s voice is heard.

If you’re in Travis County, check your address at VoteTravis.com (www.votetravis.com).

When I first ran, I didn’t see many people who looked like me on the ballot.

Sitting alongside other AAPI leaders last night with Asian Texans for Justice reminded me why representation matters.

It's a great reminder that the movement is bigger than any one of us.
