I want to hear from YOU! The people of Rolla deserve an input when it comes to making decisions that could affect our city. I’m still learning a lot about the topic, but am curious about your thoughts. Comment below what you’ve heard about data centers recently, or if you have an opinion 📢

AI in the Workplace; what an interesting topic. I was super excited to attend the Rolla Chamber’s seminar on Tuesday discussing the new advances when it comes to artificial intelligence. It’s neat to hear about how small businesses are utilizing programs like Copilot and Claude for everyday use.

Last week’s military breakfast hosted by Rolla Chamber was very insightful. It’s great to hear about all the amazing things happening down in Fort Leonard Wood! Between the hospital expansion and increase in care for our veterans, big things are in store and I’m so excited for our troops 🎖️

I also had the pleasure of meeting the mayor and city administrator of our neighboring city, St. James! To read about the newest additions to the hospital, you can go to: https://www.army.mil/article-amp/291909/caring_for_those_who_serve_new_hospital_opens_at_fort_leonard_wood

I had a great time yesterday walking Rolla’s annual arts and crafts fair downtown! I’m always amazed with how creative our community is. From handmade quilts to wood carved dishes to fresh baked sourdough, I came home with many goodies!

It was great seeing my friends from Phelps County Walk to End Alzheimer's and their booth setup. And of course we had to end the day with amazing eats from Space Boys Tacos and SpellboundSips 😋🍋🌮
Already looking forward to next year’s!
