Had the chance to sit down with my good friend Francene Marie—a true radio legend. We covered a wide range of topics, but what meant the most to me was the opportunity to reflect on why I’m so incredibly thankful to be a father. youtu.be/utES7Zr6HUE?si=pZVy… via @YouTube

In an op-ed for the @TheCharPost, @DavidHowardCLT emphasizes the importance of transportation plans like this one, saying they increase access to economic opportunity. "The benefits of the plan are clear. More than 447,000 jobs will be located near transit access, and 450,000 people will be within a 10-minute walk of high-frequency service, whether by bus, rail, or one of the 19 new micro-transit zones," he writes.

Today, we pause. Not for a long weekend or a cookout—but to honor those who gave everything. We remember. We honor. We say thank you. #MemorialDay #HonorAndRemember #Gratitude #NeverForget

Honored to attend the Evening to Honor Governor Roy Cooper in Raleigh tonight. Serving in his administration as Chief Deputy Secretary at NCDOT for nearly five years remains one of the greatest honors of my life. It was wonderful reconnecting with so many friends. #TeamCooper
