Great conversation this week at TechNexus. Chicago’s tech and business community showed up to talk about how we grow our economy, navigate the changes coming with AI, and make the city more affordable.

Chicago can do better than politics as usual. We need a problem solver that focuses on real people and real solutions. What do you want to see change first?👇

The Chicago Mayoral race should be about who has a real plan to move this city forward. Safety. Growth. Housing. Affordability. A city that works for the people who live here. And that’s just the beginning. Learn more about our campaign plan and how to get involved at champ.ly/y4BWQY0l.

A moment that shaped how I lead? Teaching algebra to 7th and 8th graders on Chicago’s West Side. Leadership isn’t about telling people what to do—it’s about listening, understanding, and helping them bring out their best.

I’ll go first! Piece Pizzeria and Brewery in Wicker Park is one of my favorites because Hot Doug’s Atomic pizza with award-winning beers can’t be beat! Tag or share yours below so we can support the places that make your Chicago neighborhood special 👇

Affordability isn’t political. It’s personal.

Some down time over the holidays means picking up a good book to read. And of course, reading 1, 2, 3 Chicago with the baby! Happy holidays to all.

Chicago has lost nearly 1 million people. It’s time to grow again.

We can support working families and grow our economy at the same time. That’s the point.

More businesses means more jobs in Chicago. The head tax pushes jobs out of Chicago.
