I have been a lifelong community activist and frankly did not dream of being in public office.

My father was from the South and turned me into a news junkie at a very early age. I would sit and watch TV with him.
When I was in my early 20s, I studied tae kwon do and hapkido. I earned brown belts in both of them.
