Great American Weekend
What a Great American Weekend in Goshen! It was wonderful spending time with the Orange County Republican Committee, the Orange County Young Republicans, Orange County Sheriff Paul Arteta, and Attorney General candidate Saritha Komatireddy while meeting so many residents and local businesses from across the district. Events like this are a reminder of what makes the Hudson Valley such a special place to call home. Thank you to everyone who stopped by to say hello, share their concerns, and talk about the future of our communities. I’m grateful for the warm welcome and look forward to continuing to meet voters across NY-18 as we build a stronger, more affordable future for the Hudson Valley. 🇺🇸

Happy 4th of July!
Happy 250th America!!!! Oh how I love to celebrate you!!! I spent the 4th in my stomping grounds throughout Ulster County. We started the day walking the Saugerties parade with the Hudson Valley National Center for Veteran Reintegration. Our Humvee kept stalling out in the heat but every time it stopped, people came out of the crowd to help us push. It was such a simple, powerful reminder of what community looks like. We ended the night down on the strand, catching up with friends at The Cornell fireworks viewing party. There’s nothing like celebrating America right here at home!! And a special shoutout to the local small businesses that helped make the night possible and sponsored Kingston’s fireworks: The Cornell Restaurant + Bar, Brickmen Kitchen & Bar, and O’Connor & Partners, PLLC. Thank you for all that you do for our community!! 🇺🇸

Hoovler for DA Annual Golf Outing
Had the pleasure of attending the 14th Annual David M. Hoovler Golf Outing to support our Orange County District Attorney David Hoovler. I loved seeing everyone come out for our DA, from former Yankees and West Point graduates to veterans, union members, business owners and community leaders. I even had the privilege of playing Vanna White during the raffle. It's heartwarming to see people from all walks of life come together for a common cause. No matter who you are or what you do, we all play a part in giving back to our community.

Memorial Day
Today was for reflection, remembrance, and gratitude. I was honored to attend Memorial Day ceremonies in the towns of Esopus, LaGrange, and Wappinger as well as the Village of Fishkill parade. But the most meaningful part of my day was getting to share it with my niece and nephew. Teaching them simple things like flag etiquette, watching them wave their flags with excitement, and hoping they grow up remembering what this day stands for. I also had the privilege of passing out flags and putting smiles on faces throughout such a somber and emotional day. In moments of reflection, those small acts of patriotism and community felt exceptionally important. Today, we remembered. We reflected. And we carried forward the responsibility to never take their sacrifice for granted.

Memorial Day Weekend
Today someone asked the question, "What does Memorial Day mean to you?" To me, it means freedom. It means having the choice to show up and march through the rain to honor the men and women who gave everything so we could live in a country where showing up is still our choice. And today, I was proud to see our community make that choice. With umbrellas in hand and flags held high, we stood together to remember the cost of the freedoms we too often take for granted. It was an absolute honor to march with the Town of Marlborough Republican Committee in the Marlboro-Milton Memorial Day parade and stand alongside a community that still understands the meaning of this day. So now I ask: What does Memorial Day mean to you?

What an honor to witness history in the very place we call home. Yesterday, a sitting President came to speak directly to the people of our region. And that made one thing clear: the Hudson Valley matters. Thank you President Donald J. Trump for visiting and Congressman Mike Lawler for catching the attention of our nation and putting our communities in the well-deserved spotlight.

Family and Friends Announcement
Thank you to everyone who made it Monday night, especially with less than 12 hours' notice! For those who couldn't make it, here's a look into my private announcement with close friends and family. No press, no media, and not meant to be a crowd shot. It was about putting my people first and making it clear that without them, none of this happens. I wanted the people in my life to hear directly from me and to connect with each other, because that is where this campaign begins. As much as this is about me, it is just as much about all of YOU. I'm doing this to serve the people of my community and to represent them the right way. This is not a stepping stone for me because this community is ME. If you missed it, I know you were there in spirit and I can't wait to have you join us next time! Stayed tuned, good things are coming.
