Favorite President and Why:

John Quincy Adams. I admire him for his lifelong commitment to public service. The fact that he returned as a U.S. Representative after having obtained the highest office in the land demonstrates this. He was also very cultured and was a philosopher in his own right.

Favorite Quote:

And that's what keeps him out of the abyss." --actor Hal Holbrook ("Lou Manheim") in the film Wall Street, probably quoting someone else

Priority Issues:

Add subjects such as financial literacy, leadership, entrepreneurship, networking, goal planning, personal development, and current trends in business and technology to the mandatory curriculum for all high school students of each school district. Add the same to the required general core curriculum for college and university students. To me, this is the best economic stimulus policy we can enact.

I have a passion for service to others.
