The Federal Credit Union Act allowed Americans to access fair, community-rooted #FinancialServices. Credit unions were designed for service and built on shared ownership and local investment. The model still offers lessons on building systems that put #PeopleFirst.

Built a Bluetooth radio from scratch with students at Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. ®’s ZUL Chapter Alpha Academy mentoring program. Challenging? Yes. Rewarding? Absolutely. You’re never too old to learn. You just have to bear down and focus. #STEMMentoring #AlphaPhiAlpha #LifelongLearning

Freedom is a gift, but it takes vigilance to protect it. This country doesn’t want war, but we must stay alert. Let’s lead with purpose, live with gratitude, and never take democracy for granted. #FourthOfJuly #Gov101 #PublicService #Leadership

Recently caught The Roots live at #WolfTrap.🔥 performance and even better reminder: music still brings us together across age, race, and background. That matters. #TheRoots #UnityThroughMusic #LiveMusic

I’ve been thinking about the overlap between #lobbying and #consulting. Both come down to helping leaders make decisions while maintaining a clear focus on the #mission. The goals are the same. The stakes are just different.

The blues is resilience set to rhythm. Seeing Buddy Guy, Kingfish, and Judith Hill at Wolf Trap was a reminder of how art carries our history & hope. What traditions remind you of our collective strength? #BluesLegacy #FreedomSounds

Honoring my cousin, Sabrina Walker Hernandez, a transformative leader, mentor, and advocate. Her life reminds us to lift others as we climb and to never let our background limit our impact. Rest in power, Sabrina. #LivingLegacy #HopeInAction

Celebrated 20 years of the Cal State DC Scholars program. This pipeline of passionate young leaders is shaping our communities. Proud to support this work and see what’s ahead. #HigherEd #PublicService

A milestone for BlackPromoters and proof that #vision + #strategy + #representation can break records and build #generationalwealth. Congrats to the team for showing what #leadership looks like. rollingout.com/2025/07/16/bla…

What you save should strengthen your #mission. Without #strategy, cost-cutting is just subtraction. With #purpose, it creates space to grow and serve. Where are you finding ways to save and strengthen?

In the #boardroom, I bring the same mindset I use on Capitol Hill: clarity, strategy, and connection. Whether it’s navigating federal #policy or guiding an organization through tough decisions, the goal is to keep people at the center and move the mission forward. #Leadership

The best work happens when people bring their unique talents to a shared mission + choose #Collaboration over competition. In every chapter of my career, that’s been true. We move farther, faster + with greater impact when we remember the #Mission is bigger than any one of us.

Budget discipline is all about making values-based decisions. Whether you're leading a household or a team, how you spend tells a story about what matters most. #NationalFinancialAwarenessDay is the time to review your financial situation and make sure it aligns with your goals.

On this day in 1920, the 19th Amendment was ratified, guaranteeing women the right to vote. One Tennessee legislator’s last-minute change after a letter from his mother made it possible. Progress can hinge on a single act of courage. #VotingRights #ThisDayInHistory

On #WorldHumanitarianDay, I’m thinking about those who choose service as their life’s work by protecting lives, restoring dignity, and helping communities rebuild. Service doesn’t have to be global to matter. We all have a role in advancing humanity.
