Thank Dr. Horvath and Kentucky Avenue School for having me at their Exhibition of Learning! ✏️🍎 It was inspiring to watch these bright students in action.

What an amazing experience to tour Humane Animal Rescue of Pittsburgh’s East End facility! We learned about initiatives like Ellie’s Food Pantry, a program that provides in need pet owners with food for their companion animals.

Thank you for having us! 🐱🐶🐰

It was great to be at the launch of Pittsburgh Drinks Tap; delivering safe, reliable drinking water takes more than promises — it takes sustained funding and transparency.

This is what investing in public infrastructure looks like: safer systems, more accountability, and tap water you can trust.
