Senior Vice President-Economic Development
I often get comments about being everywhere. The truth is, that's one of the greatest blessings of my job. Today, though, I wasn't there to host, speak, or network. I got to experience Atlanta simply as a fan—cheering on my team, England. 🏴 What I witnessed reminded me why I love this city. I saw small businesses thriving, Centennial Yards Atlanta The CTR Atlanta buzzing with energy, cultures from around the world coming together, and the incredible atmosphere inside Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Hands down, it is the best venue in the world! As someone who spends every day focused on growing Atlanta's economy, creating opportunity, and welcoming the world to our city, it was refreshing to pause, take it all in, and see the impact firsthand. More than anything, I got to breathe, enjoy my city, and make priceless memories with the people who matter most. Atlanta, you continue to make me proud. Here's to many more moments where the world discovers what we've always known—this city is truly something special. ⚽❤️ #ATL #Pricelessmoments #ComeonEngland #Threegenerations
