It is with great honor that I announce my new role as the Executive Director of @amigosdelyunque. In all my different roles as a professional, purpose and impact have always been my north. Humble and honored to evolve my journey as a conservationist.
A passion project is born. Join me tonight at the launch of polifonicopr.com feat. @labajura_ at @vivobeachclub taproom. 7pm - free entrance. Thanks @ElNuevoDia for the article: bit.ly/45etT5q

My dad got power restored but the water went out. So we’re debating whether it’s worse to live without electricity or running water.
Not as a fun hypothetical. But as our reality in Puerto Rico.

Si han caído ~20 pulgadas de lluvia (conservador), han caído sobre PR más de un billón galones de agua el pasado día, es decir, sobre 200,000X la que cabe en el lago Carraizo. De hecho, si se recogiese toda esa agua en un lago sería uno de los lagos más grandes de Norte America

Puerto Rico has received ~1.2 trillion gallons of rainfall during #Fiona. To put it in perspective, Lake Champlain in NY/VT is 6 trillion gallons of water. If the rainfall in PR during the past days were in a lake, it would be one of the largest lakes in North America.

We asked readers who submitted these final messages why they decided to share. Many said they hoped their texts could make the pandemic feel real for those who hadn’t experienced its toll up close. Read on here: nyti.ms/3Mz1spf

Al menos siete viviendas en el proyecto de Jobos, en Salinas, tienen permisos falsos. Y, ¿no es hasta ahora que el gobierno se percata de la burla que les hicieron en la cara con documentación ACME? ¿Ahora que ya se cometió el crimen ambiental frente a las narices de medio mundo?
So this happened on Thursday! I got awarded the 2021 Top Management Award in the Tourism Category by @SMEPuertoRico . Humbled, still a bit in shock and sooo honored. 🎉💪🏼🎉
