MY TURN: Come together against the tide

| March 28, 2024 1:00 AM

In my roles as a father, husband, business leader and unwavering optimist, I’ve spent countless hours contemplating the future and working to ensure that it is one filled with light, hope and love. I’m far from perfect, but I hope that my actions, my words and my heart show where my true intentions are. 

Every day I get to wake up and see our community's potential for greatness and the triumph of common sense and goodness. However, this belief is occasionally shadowed by concerns about the destructive power dynamics that threaten to reshape the fabric of our community, challenging our progress and unity.

After a quick scan of the news or your social media feed it's become increasingly evident that individuals motivated by self-interest and a desire for dominance have inserted themselves into pivotal positions within our community. Their actions, fueled by a misguided quest for personal glory, disrupt the harmony and integrity of organizations, stifling the voices that advocate for meaningful and positive change.
