From navigating the bustling halls of power during your time as Deputy Chief of Staff in Clinton's second term to advising presidents with precision and flair—you've certainly made history look easy. Who else can keep calm amidst White House chaos while secretly orchestrating policy brilliance?

Your impressive journey continues inspiring many—proving that true elegance survives even marathon strategy meetings or last-minute briefings. As you celebrate another year around the sun, may your humor remain sharper than a presidential witty remark and your adventures more thrilling than Election Night drama. Here's wishing laughter-filled days ahead!
