Welcome to 2022, we’re looking forward to continuing to tell the stories of the Lehigh Valley and we think you’ll enjoy what we have in store. 
I’d like to welcome on former NFL running back with the Giants and Chargers, one of the best running backs in college football history at Boston College finishing his career 5th all time for most yards rushed in a single season with 2,177, Heisman finalist, Parkland High graduate, and now a local business owner with a really interesting concept: Andre Williams! 
Andre is the owner of AW Selvedge, a high end denim retailer located at the Promenade Shops at Saucon Valley. 
We talk about how he continues to use the tenacity that made him successful in athletics, successful in his new endeavor. We also talk about why the Lehigh Valley and exactly what goes into choosing the best in quality denim, along with some of his other interests.

Hello and Welcome to the Lehigh Valley with Love Podcast, I’m your host, George Wacker, In this episode, we meet with the Greater Lehigh Valley REALTORS (GLVR) to talk more about their innovative pilot program aimed at enhancing youth education on financial literacy.

Through interactive presentations and thoughtfully crafted materials, GLVR aims to inspire the next generation to shape their financial literacy, foster community development through property ownership, and nurture future leaders within our community.
