I appreciated the chance to join @templelaw for their Coffee and Careers program yesterday afternoon. Students stopped by to learn about what a career as a housing lawyer looks like, how it brought me to City Hall, and how it has informed every aspect of my career thus far.

The PMA is now the PAM! Today, I attended the @philamuseum.bsky.social at the launch of their new branding. With a strong legacy and bold steps toward the future, this rebrand comes at a time when we need our arts institutions front and center, and we need our communities showing up to support them

Private security officers deserve training that sets them up for success, wages that reflect their efforts, and resources in line with their duties. Recently, @cmthomasphl.bsky.social introduced legislation to strengthen hiring security. I stand with @32bjseiu.bsky.social!
