Friends, good news/bad news Friday. I got an all-clear on an important medical check-up. Very thankful for that. Bad news is today was my last day at KU Alumni. I'll be job hunting soon. Prayers are always welcome and appreciated.

As a #KU sophomore, I befriended students interested in reviving a student org called MEChA. We sought a more encompassing name: the #Hispanic American #Leadership Organization.

I attended a Día de Muertos event hosted by the Latin American Student Union. New name, same passion. #kualumni

First intended as an entrance for social events, the East Wing became the first lady's office space. Historians say the shift was a key part of professionalizing staff for the president's wife. n.pr/4qA1nG0

It was not lost on me that the beautiful #HispanicHeritageMonth celebration we enjoyed tonight was at the same location where my family has voted for years. Very proud to serve on the Friends of Johnson County #Museum.

What a great day! Went with my friend to hear Elyse Arons speak on #KU’s campus. She lived at GSP when she met Katy Brosnahan (St. Teresa's Academy grad) there their freshman year, followed by ASU, founding #KateSpade, then #FrancesValentine. #KUAlumni #stastars

One of the greatest joys of long-term professional friendships is witnessing each other’s growth. This past weekend in Las Vegas, I experienced that in the most beautiful way.

We had a great time (in the heat!) volunteering at the Meadowbrook Park Festival earlier this month. The wonderful staff at the Johnson County #Museum and the Friends of the Johnson County Museum, on which I serve, were there promoting this jewel in #KansasCity.
