Wishing my two seniors Sachse High School the best school year ever. It’s a bitter-sweet moment having two graduate in 2023. I wish all our students and parents the best day ever. #GarlandISD1stDay #TheGISDEffect #BeTheLight

Thank You Veterans for your service. Today, I salute my favorite veteran and my hero- my dad. His 20 years of loyal USAF service gave me lifetime experiences which I am grateful for. Love you pops.

I had the pleasure to know Willie Cager. He was a ray of light and a hero. Breaking barriers is never easy but in 1966 he and Texas Western Men’s BB shocked the world and forever changed the sport. RIP. Love you.
