I enjoy new ideas and expanding on topics I’ve studied before. I’m energized by solving difficult problems, leading a team through a complex project, and delivering results which make a difference. I am a political junkie and spend considerable time reading political articles, pundit and expert opinions, and analyzing political data. Someday I'll run for office again.
