Honored to continue serving District 8! On Monday at 10AM, I'll be sworn in with my colleagues at Boston Symphony Hall as we begin a new term of partnership, problem-solving, and care for our neighborhoods. Hope you will be able to tune in!

Joined Mayor Michelle Wu 吳弭 at City Hall Plaza for Boston's First Night traditions, including the parade! It was great to share this tradition with my mom who is in town for the holidays. Happy 2026, Boston! Wishing health and prosperity to you and yours.

Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Mission Hill’s stop on the Mayor’s Trolley Tour did not disappoint. What an honor it is to represent this community. The holidays are such a good excuse to slow down and say thank you and that was my whole message at Brigham Circle this year. Being out there with neighbors and friends and the folks who keep this place humming reminded me why Mission Hill feels like its own little world in the best way.

Huge thanks to Penguin Pizza, Mission Hill Main Streets, Solid Ground and Mike’s Donuts for pitching in to make the festivities happen. That kind of generosity is exactly what makes this neighborhood shine. I left feeling grateful and proud and honestly just happy to be part of it all. Here’s to a joyful season and everything this community brings to the table.

Thank you District 8! Being your councilor is the honor of my life! I am fired up for the next two years and ready to keep rolling up my sleeves for the Back Bay, Beacon Hill, Fenway, Kenmore, Mission Hill, Audubon Circle and the West End. 🌸
