    News deserts are devastating small town America.

    I'm excited to welcome a visionary leader working to strengthen the backbone of our democracy through local journalism. As the founder of Journalism New England, she’s helping small, independent newsrooms across the region grow, innovate, and thrive—because every community deserves access to trusted, credible reporting. Her career spans journalism, nonprofit leadership, and media transformation—from launching The Nation Fund for Independent Journalism to creating new pathways for underrepresented storytellers through the Fellowship for the Future of Journalism. A writer, builder, and advocate at heart, she’s proving that journalism isn’t just about informing people—it’s about connecting them.

    Being a teen mom didn't define her, it inspired her.

    I’m excited to welcome an executive leader who’s redefining what it means to lead with purpose, optimism, and connection. As Executive Vice President of Mosaic Quarter — one of Southern Arizona’s most ambitious sports and entertainment developments — she’s helping shape a future where community, business, and innovation thrive together. She also serves as Chair of the Southern Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and Immediate Past President of CREW Tucson, championing equity, representation, and opportunity for women and underrepresented voices in business and real estate.

    Travis Reed, Owner of Mass Fabricator

    I’m excited to welcome a master craftsman, entrepreneur, and community builder. He’s the owner of Mass Fabricator, with 30 years of experience in aerospace, military, and mining — turning raw metal into complex structures for both mechanical and architectural use. But what really sets him apart is his passion for the next generation. He recently founded a nonprofit trade school that offers free welding classes, and when he promoted it on TikTok, more than 400 people showed up to take advantage of the opportunity to learn. He’s proof that experience plus generosity can spark opportunity — and that welding isn’t just about metal, it’s about building futures.
