The best Tuesday of 2025 was this day with dear colleagues at Taos Pueblo. Such a sweet gift to bid farewell to my role.

It’s been a little over a month of no longer serving as a Town of Taos Councilmember, where meetings are the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month.

Tuesdays have been strange, and adjusting to life post- council is very peculiar.

In other news, did you know that filing for candidacy for Taos County Commissioner is fast approaching now in March? Who are you encouraging to run for office ?

A policy analyst for New Mexico Voices for Children argues that lawmakers need to take action on climate to protect New Mexico families.

It can be overwhelming to step into new arenas and possibilities, but less so when you have a hometown champion in your corner. Feliz Cumpleaños to Louis A. Jeantete who has uplifted countless colleagues, neighbors and friends throughout northern NM. Your time, ideas and collaboration with , rotary, campaigns, community events, Encantado Foundation, and various leadership opportunities has positively impacted so many of us. I’m grateful for your belief in me and for always having a great book recommendation!! I wouldn’t have been recognized as a 40 Under 40 , or be selected as a Kellogg Fellow, completed my demanding term on Town Council, or leading Twirl as their Executive Director without you and you encouragement.
Cheers to you as you enter a new decade and may all the goodness that you share with us return to you ten fold!
What book has Louis recommended to you ? What project did he help you brainstorm? How has Louis celebrated you?!
