What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
Vocation and Work Experience..My work as a Carpenter has prepared me for life as a Politician. For example in Carpentry you start with concept of how a home or furniture should look. You go from concept to planning to Blueprint to construction. Each step requires critical thinking and problem solving skills, working with trades concrete crews,carpenters and suppliers City Planners, Customers. The skills that I have acquired are a perfect match for a Congressman. I can adapt to an ever changing environment and never lose sight of the goal. My role as a Congressman would be to serve a large and diverse community, different needs for each group and individuals. Ready to Serve.
