We Won! Now, Back Home in SF

Well I am now back home in San Francisco after working in Ohio for the Obama campaign since June. It's great to be back with my wife, Jen and I am getting a lot of rest after working 16 hour long days.

I was working in Licking County, Ohio and was in charge of much of Newark as well as all of Hebron, Heath, and Hanover.

I'm so happy that Obama won the election. I've never been as motivated as I was working to get him elected President. We need fundamental change and Obama had the vision and the principles to get things done to move this country in the direction we all need.

I was not able to blog during my employment by the campaign, but now I am able to do so and will be writing more in the future.

San Francisco, California, United States
I was born and raised in Ohio. I am a lifelong Catholic Christian who has always been interested in the big questions of life. I have a passion for learning especially Philosophy, Science, Religion, History and Culture. I graduated from the University of Toledo in 2001 with a B.A. in International Relations. I married my soul-mate, Jen in 2001 and we moved to rural Tanigumi-mura Japan where we taught English for 3 years. We moved to California and eventually made it to San Francisco, the city we love. I earned my Master's Degree in Education in 2005. I began volunteering for the Barack Obama campaign in March of 2007 and was eventually hired as a field organizer in my native state, Ohio. It was hard but rewarding work. I have recently returned to San Francisco and want to stay actively involved in politics and government.
