"Never be afraid to stand with the minority when the minority is right, for the minority which is right will one day be the majority."
- William Jennings Bryan (on thinking)
Thanks For Stopping By
I’m a 28-year-old American technology entrepreneur, lawyer, and aspiring statesman that ran for the 2018 United States Congress.
When I say “aspiring statesman” I don’t refer to the ‘role’ of elected official because I’m NOT a candidate for public office— nor did I enter the public arena in the 1st place considering ‘the position’ as an end in itself.
Instead, my purpose remains performing the ‘functions’ of the role: doing the mutually important work necessary to maximize the public space (... for free, happily, and as a private citizen).
Plainly stated: for most of my life, I've been frustrated with the complete lack of vision, creativity, and new good ideas coming out of D.C/in American politics generally.
Instead of following the same flawed mode of operation OR remaining a spectator on the sidelines, I ran for Congress to develop & advocate for a more advanced methodology or “operating system” to solve our domestic & international problems— something which I believe is necessary given 1) the scale, pace and complexity of this 21st century, 2) the massive backlog of interdependent problems, and 3) the unlikeliness that these solutions can be yielded by the members of Congress.
So while the campaign proper “failed”, we continue to work hard on inaugurating our action plan for America.

The blunt truth is there is so much that needs to be done, and we only have a small window to get back on track.
We need to act now for our Nation and our people to find the health, wealth and happiness we deserve in this 21st century.
It's time to start the process of Revitalizing America.

It's time to start the process of Revitalizing America.
Towards meeting this immense challenge, we’ve put together the open-source and non-partisan Problems Of Our Time competition-- the centerpiece of the Revitalizing America program-- as a way to properly focus America's thinking resources at-large.
Such a great and open task requires a methodology commensurate, and I firmly believe this strategic action plan can be successful in providing the United States with a smarter & clearer direction, under a renewed purpose, for the next couple decades.

It’s time for a new wave of vibrant and innovative thinkers that are genuinely up to the task of meeting our short, medium, and long-term challenges.
At the time I started the campaign, 0 of the 535 members of Congress were under 30. Plain and simple: my generation needs "seats at the table" and true representation. While far more importantly, America itself is desperately seeking a viable answer to tomorrow.
In launching my campaign, I sought to be the fresh face American politics needed, with the new and useful ideas that it needed even more.
In the years that follow, I aim to earn your respect and make valuable contributions.
