Thank you to KSNV News 3, Las Vegas for shining a light on two extraordinary young women — Las Vegas high school students, Chloe Kim and Ilana Stone. They didn’t wait for someone else to solve this problem. They built the Wellness Box Foundation, have distributed over 20,000 wellness kits across 7 states and 4 countries, and Chloe even wrote a children’s book, Penny’s First Period, to help young girls navigate menstruation with confidence. At 17. Let that sink in.
When young people lead with this kind of purpose, our job as lawmakers and community members is simple: show up, amplify, and get out of the way.

Community leaders, lawmakers and advocates gathered in the southwest Las Vegas valley today for “Breaking the Stigma,” a special event recognizing Period Povert

While I recently transitioned my Legislative Advisory position with the Nevada Office of Minority Health and Equity (NOMHE) over to Assemblymember Erica Mosca, my connection to this incredible organization hasn’t ended — and I wouldn’t want it to! I’ve truly valued participating in the meaningful work NOMHE does to advance health equity for minority and marginalized communities across our state, and I look forward to continuing to support their mission.
Speaking of getting involved — NOMHE is currently looking for people to serve on their Advisory Committee, and I’d love to see passionate community members step up! Per NRS 232.482, the Advisory Committee is made up of 9 members appointed by the NV Board of Health or the Director of the Department of Human Services. There are currently TWO vacancies, and they are especially seeking candidates who reflect the following profiles:
✅ Northern Nevada resident
✅ Rural resident
✅ Native American
✅ Health professional
✅ Faith leader
If this sounds like you — or someone you know — I encourage you to apply! Complete the application and submit your resume and letter of interest here:

Questions? Reach out to NOMHE Program Manager Tina Dortch at [email protected] or 702-486-2151.
Health equity work matters. Your voice on this committee could make a real difference.

An amazing afternoon watching Hyde Park Middle School’s production of Shrek The Musical JR.

Watching my daughter’s friends perform was incredible. Huge shoutout to the BEST Donkey ever, Oliva H, and to the multi-talented Ali H for bringing so many characters to life 👏

Big thanks to Ms. Kelly Heilman and all the amazing teachers who made this production possible.

And I loved the reminder “Lord Farquaad,” (Aidan)—schools like Hyde Park (nearly 70 years old!) need our support.

So let’s show up: GIVE. GIVE. GIVE.

So grateful to have had the opportunity to speak with students in Professor Elenis Wong’s class at UNLV.

The last time I visited, I was reminded just how powerful these spaces are—where students are exploring politics, identity, and leadership in such thoughtful and meaningful ways. Being able to share my journey as a multi-racial AANHPI woman in public service—and more importantly, to hear from students about their own experiences—was truly inspiring.

Moments like these stay with me. They reinforce why representation matters and why we must continue creating pathways for the next generation of leaders to step forward.

Looking forward to a really important conversation at UNLV this week.

For the past several years, we’ve been working on cannabis policy in Nevada—but one of the biggest questions still remains: how does it intersect with our gaming and tourism economy?

I’ll be joining a panel at the 3rd Annual Gaming & Cannabis Policy Discussion hosted by UNLV Cannabis Policy Institute and International Gaming Institute to dig into that question—and what comes next.

🗓 May 1 | 1:30–3 PM
📍 Thomas & Mack Moot Court at UNLV

If you’re interested in where policy is headed, I hope you’ll join us.

Honored to present a proclamation today recognizing Sergeant Troyce Krumme for 25 years of dedicated service to LVMPD and our community.

From serving in the U.S. Army to mentoring officers and protecting Southern Nevada, Troyce has led with integrity and heart.

Congratulations on a well-earned “retirement”—we are grateful for your service.

Another inspiring night at the UNLV Barrick Lecture Series with Brooke Shields.

We even had the chance to meet Brooke, and she was truly so kind, warm, genuine, and yes…incredibly beautiful. Definitely a little star struck in that moment.

What made the evening even more meaningful was watching Dr. Michelle Paul lead the conversation. I’ve had the privilege of knowing and working with Michelle, and she was exceptional. She created a space where the conversation felt honest, reflective, and real, allowing Brooke to share openly about aging, identity, and life in the spotlight.

Grateful to University of Nevada, Las Vegas for continuing to bring these kinds of impactful experiences to our community.

Grateful for Rochelle Nguyen standing shoulder to shoulder with HCA workers as we fight for a fair contract and safe staffing.

We haven’t forgotten—she carried the safe staffing bill all the way through the Legislature, only for it to be vetoed by Joe Lombardo.

Her sign said it best—the truth is, this fight isn’t over.

We’ll keep showing up. We’ll keep pushing. And we won’t stop until safe staffing is a reality for every worker and every patient.💜✊🏽

"Don't wait until you feel 100% ready. You will be waiting forever. Most people are figuring it out as they go. Early in your career it's easy to think everyone else has the roadmap, but the truth is that growth comes from stepping into opportunities before you feel completely prepared. Say yes to things that challenge you, trust your instincts, and don't underestimate the value of your perspective. When you find yourself in the room, remember that your voice belongs there just as much as anyone else's."

So grateful to be included among the incredible women featured in
