Entrepreneurship Development
I want to bring about real change, and I'm frustrated with the lack of commitment and imagination on the issues of economic opportunity: equal access to education, public safety, affordability of housing, and jobs. I believe that when we deal with these fundamental issues, society becomes transformative. I also believe that the people have the input and impact of their community. We need to put all the power into the hands of the people.
