It was a pleasure to welcome tourism and hospitality leaders to the Biltmore Hotel for the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau’s State of the Travel & Tourism Industry event this afternoon to the City Beautiful!
Since opening in 1926, the Biltmore Hotel has stood as a symbol of elegance, hospitality, and history in Coral Gables.
This past January, the Biltmore celebrated its centennial with an elegant gala reminiscent of the grand opening festivities hosted by George E. Merrick a century earlier, honoring the vision that helped shape one of Florida’s most recognizable destinations.
A century later, the Biltmore remains an enduring part of Florida’s story and a landmark woven into America’s history. @America250FL

On this day in 1940, Hitler’s Luftwaffe bombs Paris, killing 254 people — mostly civilians — in the first major air raid on the city. Ten days later, the French government declares Paris an “open city” to avoid further destruction as German forces close in.
Heaven Birthday, Garo Yepremian🕯️
"Garo's Gaffe"
God bless him, but despite being a 1970s All-Decade kicker for the #Dolphins, his infamous fumbled pass attempt after a blocked field goal late in Super Bowl VII will forever remain one of NFL history's most unforgettable moments
82% of travel decisions are influenced by women.
The industry's response? More female-forward imagery, a wellness add-on and a campaign brief that says "women 35–54."
That's not strategy. That's lazy demographics with a marketing budget.
A new piece from Skift makes the case that treating women travelers as a single segment isn't just a marketing failure - it's a revenue leak the industry keeps choosing to ignore.
The women who understand this better than anyone and are doing it differently are the ones running commercial strategy, product and brand at the world's leading travel and hospitality companies.
And they're gathering next week at the Women Leading Travel Forum June 8–10, The Ritz-Carlton, New Orleans

This was my first TV appearance as hurricane specialist this year, my 5th already on @nbc6 after retiring as chief meteorologist in early 2022. I’ll be here again to guide South Florida audiences through any and all tropical threats in 2026. Thank you always for your trust in me.
I am deeply honored to be inducted into the Miami-Dade County Women’s Hall of Fame.
I’m grateful to all of those who have supported me throughout my career in public service. I’ve been guided by faith, family, and freedom and continue to carry those values with me at FIU.
Thank you to Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners and the Miami-Dade County Commission for Women for this incredible recognition and congratulations to all the honorees!
Miami’s economic engine is booming! MIA’s statewide economic impact soared 17% to $212B in business revenue, supporting 945,682 jobs. With passenger traffic at 55.3M and a 13.6% spike in cargo, MIA continues to shatter records.

The personable longtime broadcaster and radio executive died, at 74, after a battle with brain cancer.
Pope Leo XIV praised Fulton Sheen today, during an audience with the Pontifical Mission Socieities:
“Archbishop Sheen was a light of faith, hope, & love that shone through the radio and television media for decades.
I myself am a witness of his evangelization when I was growing up.
His broadcasts touched millions with the hope of the Gospel & his initiatives & efforts resulted in enormous spiritual & material aid to the Churches in areas of first evangelization.
May our new Blessed be an example for all of the National & Diocesan Directors of the Pontifical Mission Societies throughout the world.”
My dear friend Lovette McGill, a fierce union advocate and unwavering voice for working families.
Thank you for your friendship, your leadership, your steadfast commitment to protecting and uplifting workers, and for always supporting me.
I am deeply honored to be inducted into the Miami-Dade County Women’s Hall of Fame alongside an extraordinary group of women whose leadership, service, and contributions have helped shape our community for generations.
This recognition is about far more than one individual. It reflects the power of education to transform lives and the collective efforts of those who believe in creating opportunities for others.
I share this honor with the students who entrusted Miami Dade College with their dreams, the faculty and staff who dedicate themselves to student success every day, and the many women who broke barriers and opened doors so others could follow.
As the first female president of Miami Dade College, I understand that progress is built on the shoulders of those who came before us. My hope is that this recognition encourages young women to pursue their ambitions boldly, lead with purpose, and never underestimate the impact they can have on their communities and the world.
Thank you to the Miami Dade County Commission for Women and Miami-Dade County for this meaningful recognition. It is a privilege to serve this community and to continue helping create pathways of opportunity for future generations.
