Re: “Five for Fighting”

For the record, I am not under investigation by the FBI or any other regulatory or law enforcement agency. I submitted all of the proper paperwork to the Voter Registrar along with 173 signatures from individuals in Oregon Hill, the Fan, Randolph, Byrd Park, Maymont, Carillon, Carytown, Woodland Heights, and Swansboro neighborhoods. These registered voters in the 5th District who signed my petition have been strong supporters throughout my campaign.

Likewise, I would like to clarify some other factual misstatements from earlier posts. I was the Manager of Membership and Visitor Services at the VMFA where I managed a staff of 13 employees and 40 volunteers and was responsible for nearly $1 Million in annual revenue being processed through our office. I was part of a team that created the business plan for the museum's expansion.

In 2010, I wanted to work on the US Census to understand the numbers from which so many decisions are being made in government. Demographic and population statistics are the most cited metric in our understanding of unemployment, poverty, education, etc. A hands-on experience provided a complete understanding of how these numbers are generated. During my work with the Census, I was a recruiter, a trainer, and a supervisor and met thousands of the City's residents and listened to their needs and concerns.

Finally, the Entrepreneurship Certificate program that I teach for the University of Virginia was the product of Prof. Greg Fairchild whom I have known for nearly 10 years. In 2008, when the economy tanked, I challenged Dean Bob Bruner of the Darden School to get more engaged in giving back to communities who were hard hit by the recession. It took years to plan the program though it was inaugurated in 2011 when I joined the faculty. You can read more about our accomplishments in the Financial Times article.

I appreciate the tremendous support I have from 5th District residents and thank all those who go out to the polls to vote for their candidate of choice. In the meantime, I ask that readers please contact me with any questions.
