It was an honor to be warmly welcomed at City Hall as I begin this new chapter. Thank you Mayor Sean Ryan & #SUNY Trustee Lewin for hosting the reception & @reptimkennedy.bsky.social & @sunychancellor.bsky.social for joining us. I’m excited for all that #UBuffalo & Buffalo can achieve together!

Lookin good on a grey day.
