Welcome to San Diego, @AIANational!
I was proud to greet 5,000 architects, designers and planners to our city and talk about how design, housing and opportunity are connected.
The future of our cities doesn’t just happen. We design it. #ForAllofUs

Night and day. Event activity has a way of transforming our spaces, but the nighttime brings an almost otherworldly feel to them.
Events in the Sails Pavilion shine no matter what time it is!

During your next visit, you may notice a pair of beautiful new benches in our lobby, thoughtfully donated by the family of our former employee, Victoria Soto, to honor her lasting legacy.

Today, the City Council approved year one of a five-year modernization plan for @SDConventionCtr, funded by Measure C visitor dollars. This delivers on my State of the City commitment to keep it competitive using visitor dollars, not residents’ taxes. insidesandiego.org/mayor-glo…

We were honored to host approximately 12,000 attendees for #WEST2026, the premier naval conference. Thank you to @MayorToddGloria and all the leaders from the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard who gathered here this week.
At #WEST2026, I joined @Sdmac_Official to talk about what makes SD so special. Defense supports nearly 1/4 of our economy and we lead the nation in innovation. Our goal is to remain the premier defense innovation hub. That takes infrastructure, workforce and strong partnership.

I just passed the gavel as Chair of the @SDConventionCtr to my friend and colleague, @WillRK787.
Will is a forceful, capable leader who has already helped transform the Convention Center and our region.
Proud of what we built. Confident in what comes next.
