HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH
FROM KIM: Houston has long been considered a mecca for a variety of health care needs. People travel from all around the world to seek medical attention and great care here. To learn more about the health care oerings available in the Spring and Klein community, check out our annual Health Care Edition, which runs from Pages 14-25. I wish you all great health, but it’s good to know if you need medical attention, you are living in the right place. Kim Giannetti, GENERAL MANAGER
FROM HANNAH: Adderall, Albuterol and Ozempic are just a few of the roughly 300 drug shortages that were reported nationwide in the rst quarter of 2023. In the Spring and Klein area, many pharmacists and patients are likewise struggling to get the medications they need on a monthly basis. To learn more about these ongoing drug shortages and how they’re impacting the local community, see our front-page story, which continues on Pages 24-25. Hannah Brol, 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 sta¢ers 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 £nancial health of our metro £lls 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, speci£cally our advertising partners, is also ful£lling to me. Aside from Community Impact, what have you read recently? JC: I just £nished “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.
