It's always such a great pleasure when we get to profile the work of amazing hospitals like @ChildrensLA. @mattgutmanABC spoke to Dr. Vaughn Starnes, Co-Director of the Heart Institute, Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, about Billy Kimmel's three heart surgeries.

There is lots to be proud of from last week's DNC @ABCNewsLive coverage with @KaynaWhitworth, but working on this segment from start to finish is one of my highlights. So important to show how the election affects Americans in their day to day and their future financial goals.
The economy is top-of-mind for voters; in 2024, buying a home is out of reach for many first-time buyers. @KaynaWhitworth has the story on the housing crisis impacting millions of Americans. @eschulze weighs in on the Harris-Walz economic agenda. trib.al/9CUfMWw

This was hands down one of my favorite field assignments so far. @IkeEjiochi @nickdotkerr, our crew, and I got to join the @ComptonCowboys this month to talk about all they do bring green spaces, equestrian dreams, and empowerment to inner-city youth.
We celebrate Black History Month with a group of cowboys in Compton, California, making a big difference in the lives of kids. . gma.abc/3K1iBcO
