Ahead of Miss Texas week, I had the joy of sitting down with Dylan Villa from KCBD News Channel 11 to share a little of my story and more about the Miss Texas Opportunity. I’m forever grateful to Lubbock and my support system for getting me here.

Taking a break from your regular #oklaed programming to plug this story of my wonderful girlfriend, @graceeshoop, who is competing for Miss Texas next week.

I’ve been truly awed by the incredible amount of work she’s put into this and am so excited to watch her compete.

For those of you that are unaware, I’m training to run the @OKCMarathon in April.

I spoke on the marathon’s #RuntoRemember podcast about my training and why I love this city and our #OKC marathon.

Go give it a listen on any podcast app or at this link:

While I am a reporter by weekday, I work @RiversportOKC as a raft guide by weekend.

I was on the water taking a nice group from Illinois down the rapids when this happened. 🧵

Today happens to be #Intersex Awareness Day, which I thought I would note because a certain candidate for state superintendent of #oklaed decided to claim that intersex people do not exist during last night's debate.

Read a recap here. https://t.co/E5hHeVeSml

[Grace Shoop @graceeshoop]

I was in Carnegie on Friday for the swearing in of the Kiowa Tribe’s new chairman and vice chairman. The day seemed cheerful after an election period that included a false runoff, disputed absentee ballots and invalidated Election Commission appointments.
