my first connection to new orleans happened when i was a student at southern mississippi. every school year, class was cancelled for fat tuesday, and new orleans was less than two hours away, so we would all come down on the weekend and spend it in the city. then, as i got older, new orleans became my favorite place for a get-away. now that i’m working here, downtown in the heart of the city, my appreciation for this unique place has only grown. from being able to walk out of my condo and eat at any number of world-class restaurants to ducking into a hotel bar to listen to music that you can only find in a city like this, my experiences in my short time of living in new orleans give me the energy and passion to work toward helping this city grow.
