My Political Profile

 

 

I am in the offices of the Cook County Republican Party with the Flags of Illinois, Cook County, and the USA in the background.

I was born in Berwyn, IL and grew up at Maryville Academy in different locations around the Chicago metropolitan area. I learned to suvive despite the harshest circumstances whil in this situation because I was treated unfairly and with disregard. I learned that everyone regardless of background deserves to be listened to and have a voice. I overcame many obstacles and learned that when one applies themselves anything can be achieved.

I graduated from the public elementary and secondary school systems and went on to college ill prepared for the challenge. I have overcome this after transferring between colleges five times. I am a junior at DePaul Univesity and plan to graduate with my BA degree in Political Sciecnce in June 2007. Then I plan to attend graduate school at the University of South Carolina.

I am currently a member of the DePaul College Republicans. I am an intern for the Cook County Republican Party.

I spent one year as a cadet and one and one half years as a special student in the Air Force ROTC program where I learned the discipline that is helping me overcome my obstacles. While in this program I was a Cadet 1Lt. and Public Affiars Office in my Arnold Air Society squadron. I was a member of the Association of Air Force Missileers I was a cadet member of the Reserve Officer Association.

I have a wide range of political experience. I interned for Senator Richard Durbin of Illinois. I have volunteered for several campaigns: Vallas for Governor 2000, John Edwards for President 2004, and Dan Hynes for U.S. Senate 2004. I attended the College Democrat Convention in Boston (2004).

Though I have worked for Democrats I am politically conservative. Currently I am working for the campaign of and Dan Rutherford (Secretary of State). In 2008, I will work for the reelection campaign of Sen. Lindsey Graham.
