I do a number of things working on human rights issues, prison recidivism rates, and then I also push and have worked a lot on the social issues of rebuilding the family.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm intending to work on juvenile justice reform, sentencing reform, reentry, drug treatment, access to mental health care.
So I've gone in and out of the U.N., working on counter-terrorism, on U.N. reform, on peacekeeping, peace and security issues, many things through the years but always with a strong interest in humanitarian issues, and human rights issues as well.
I started working at Focus on the Family doing debates and media and cultural studies.
I do very well three things: my job, stupidities and children.
I was a social worker for Baltimore families. Now I'm a social worker building opportunities for families throughout America.
I make a good living doing what I do.
What I'm really focused on is connecting people around shared interests, so together they can make good stuff happen. I'm more focused on helping people discover their power as individuals, but through those connections with one another.
I've worked in the prison system, on death row and maximum security. I did that work for six years. I've worked with some of the most difficult people in our society. Buddhism was accessible and helpful for these individuals.
My job is to rectify the public finances and hand the country back to the people so they can really have a future, and that is what I will do.
If you look at my career path, I was a human rights and refugees officer for the United Nations. I helped research a book for Lloyd Axworthy. I've worked in coffee shops. I've sold clothes. I've hosted TV shows, and now I'm acting.
