We’re proud to partner with the City of Westminster, CA and UC Irvine’s MURP program to create a hands-on learning environment where students can apply planning concepts in practice! Together, we’re shaping sustainable, vibrant communities—because at City Advisors, it’s always community impact over profits.?????
When my academic and professional planning worlds collide!???????? I’m excited to facilitate a collaboration between the City of Westminster, CA and UC Irvine’s MURP program, hosting second-year students as they embark on their community planning practicum. Over the next two quarters, these students will immerse themselves in the City of Westminster, engaging with community members and exploring strategies to create vibrant, sustainable neighborhoods for the future.?????? We kicked off the evening at the Family Resource Center, nestled in Sigler Park. ?? After dinner and a presentation, we took a walking tour through the park and stopped by key sites like the Mendez Tribute Monument Park, the Westminster Crossing affordable housing development, and the future Mendez Freedom Trail. It was a reminder that great planning is about more than just land use and design—it’s about weaving together history, culture, and community needs. ????? #wecannotplanfromourdesks Plus, we got to see Adolfo truly geek out over all the active transportation potential in the City!???♂??? I’m especially excited to work once again with my former "Planning Career Development " students and to support my friend, Susan Harden,. Giving back to the profession through volunteer leadership and pro bono technical planning assistance is a core value of mine at City Advisors, and I’m proud to extend that service to the City of Westminster.????? Looking forward to the innovative ideas that will emerge from this practicum!???

#Disclaimer: No tax returns were harmed in the latest tax filing cycle. ??? However, when this curious kitten ?? wandered into my office and out of everything, chose only the box label marked "TAXES" to destroy, one has to wonder - was it really just a coincidence? ?????? #EntrepreneurLife #CatAssistant
Though I launched City Advisors in 2022, it’s these past few months that have truly made me feel like a business owner... all thanks to TAXES. ?? From spending hours on the phone to set up my own payroll and retirement accounts, to scouring a year's worth of expenses across multiple cards—the entire experience was about so much more than just numbers. There were many moments of ??, ??, and sometimes ??... but these challenges have profoundly shaped my appreciation for the nitty-gritty of business management. I've come out the other side not just with a better grasp on my finances, but with a newfound respect for anyone who takes on the labyrinth of self-employment taxes. Navigating tax season has truly been a liberating journey into the depths of financial details that many fear to tread. Here's to all the small business owners wrestling with receipts, and a special shoutout to my cat for being the unofficial 'tax advisor' - who clearly shows what she thinks of tax season! ??????
