Dear Friend,
Welcome back to my Week in Review newsletter. Please remember to follow me on Facebook, X, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube for regular updates on how I am serving the people of South Carolina!
As Women’s History Month draws to a close, I find myself reflecting both on the extraordinary women who have shaped history but also on the remarkable women in my own life—my mother, whose resilience and wisdom have been a constant guide, and my wife, whose strength and ambition inspire me daily.
In South Carolina, we are fortunate to have a rich legacy of extraordinary women whose contributions have made lasting impacts on our communities. Donna Brin, the CEO and Founder of BFIT540 in Little River, SC, is a shining example of this legacy. Like her grandmother before her, Donna is using textiles as a means to innovate and inspire. She blends time-honored traditions with modern, sustainable practices, reshaping the industry and making a difference in her community. Donna is not just carrying on a family tradition—she is forging her own path, leading with vision, creativity, and a commitment to making a positive impact.
I’m incredibly proud to celebrate women like Donna, who are not only contributing to their communities but also making history here in the Palmetto state. Their work reminds us of the power of passion, innovation, and dedication to building a brighter, more sustainable future.
