HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH
FROM JAY: This month, we again bring our readers our Health Care Edition, and our front-page story takes aim at the heart of the Texas Medical Center and Phase 1 of TMC Helix Park. The development looks to bring together professionals in medicine, science and academia with a concentration on breakthroughs in the field of medicine and an economic impact officials project to be around $5 billion. Jay McMahon, GENERAL MANAGER
FROM SHAWN: There is no shortage of health care news in our area. In addition to our front-page story, we also take a look at a new Houston Methodist office building being pitched in Bellaire and a potential bond referendum for Harris Health that voters could get a chance to weigh in on this November. Look out for more information on the latter story in future editions. Inside, we also take a look at the latest homeless count data in Harris County and the work officials are taking on to keep up the momentum. Shawn Arrajj, SENIOR EDITOR
Meet Jason Culpepper
Houston Metro Publisher
What’s your typical day as a CI Publisher? JC: It begins with reading our email newsletters, then touching base with staffers covering our Houston communities. I also like to stay close to our customers and trends in the region. Attending chamber lunches or networking is something I prioritize, and keeping on top of the operational needs and financial health of our metro fills out my week. I strive to serve my team each day based on where their needs are.
How do you spend your free time? JC: I serve on several boards within the Cy-Fair community where I grew up and where I’m raising my family. Patronizing local businesses, specifically our advertising partners, is also fulfilling to me. Aside from Community Impact, what have you read recently? JC: I just finished “The Intentional Year,” “Smart Brevity,” “The Measure,” “The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry” and “Intimate Allies.”
Email newsletters are booming for CI; why should readers subscribe? JC: They really are the best way to stay informed with the news of the day plus entertaining items, like new restaurants opening and events to plan your weekend.
