Los Angeles has always been a city of reinvention. From its origins as a pueblo to its evolution into the entertainment capital of the world, LA has consistently reshaped itself to stay ahead of the times. It’s a place with deep roots for me personally—my father was born in the Hollywood Hills, to an actress and a director, embodying the creative heartbeat that defines this city.

But today, Los Angeles faces challenges that feel like a turning point—housing shortages, climate risks, inequality, and even the tarnished reputation of its iconic industries like Hollywood.
