And of course, I had to check out the iconic giant Superstar shoes! The shoes are 15 feet long and are part of the “Left Right Project.” Artists from the East and West Coasts each painted one of the shoes, and they have been installed at Adidas Village in Portland. [2/2]
Stopped by Adidas HQ in Portland yesterday to learn more about how one of the leading apparel and footwear companies supports jobs and the economy right here at home! [1/2]
Our friends at General Sheet Metal in Clackamas deliver on this promise and are 100% employee owned and certified as a Woman Business Enterprise. More of this please. [2/2]
When you see housing, schools, and hospitals look closer. Our places and spaces don’t run without sheet metal helping stand them up and keep them cool. [1/2]
BTS at Stumptown Coffee right here at their cold brew manufacturing facility in Milwaukie, OR. Fun Fact: they package nearly 13,000 cans of coffee every day!
Service members put their lives on the line every single day to keep us safe.  A big thanks to all of the families, service members, and loved ones who have sacrificed so much for our nation.
Delivering real results for Oregonians takes strong partnerships. Great conversation today with City of Milwaukie Mayor Batey, thanks for stopping by the DC office!
Poor electrical safety can be more than a shock. It can be fatal. Increasing awareness around electrical safety saves lives and keeps our communities safer. #ElectricalSafetyMonth [2/2]
As an electrical engineer, I've seen firsthand how important electrical safety is in our manufacturing plants, construction sites, office buildings, and at home. [1/2]
Quality healthcare means investing in innovation and the next generation of treatments. Companies like Novartis are helping push that work forward and improve lives.
Awesome tour of Shortstack Milwaukie this weekend—a homeownership project in Clackamas County that adds 15 affordable homes to our community. Projects like these give more Oregonians a real chance to own a home.
