It was an honor to join the Women’s Chamber for the annual Women in Business Breakfast this week! You know I never miss a chance to talk about my favorite entrepreneur and baker: my mom.

Huge thanks to the NY Women’s Chamber of Commerce or their ongoing advocacy.

Today, on Yom HaShoah, we pause to remember the six million Jewish lives lost during the Holocaust.

We honor their memory by uplifting the voices of survivors and renewing our commitment to fighting antisemitism, bigotry, and hatred.

Happy Library Workers Appreciation Day!

All through high school I worked as a page for the Morningside Public Library. That’s how I know our library workers are some of the most thoughtful, committed public servants we’ve got. 📖 💪🏼

Today I met with parents, teachers, and students to talk about public safety in Morningside Park.

There’s a lot we can do to make sure our kids feel safe on their way to and from school. When we talk about making our city work for families, this has to be a priority.
