I have a deep passion for helping people and giving back to my community through civic engagement. After running for City Council eight years earlier, I found myself once again motivated by my passion to make a positive impact through my involvement in local government. Interviewing with newspapers, liaising with party members and speaking with local citizens was an experience I will never forget and one that I hope to accomplish again in the near future. There is no greater feeling then knowing you have the power to help people and make a difference.This experience gave me the ability to expand my leadership skills and helped me to look at issues from all angles, not just a single point of view. My goal will always be to help people live in a more balanced and equal world.
