Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I am just a person who is trying to bring common sense back in politics.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• People deserve to make a decent living doing their job. They are to be paid not for their time but for their value. Why is it so hard to offer fair wages, great benefits, and a dignified retirement? No American should be too poor to live.
• I want us to go to space. I want us to explore even deeper water. I want us to be #1 in everything. To do that, we need scientists, mathematicians, artists, programmers and more. We cannot do that if we constantly underfund the education system. Funding for education should never be used as a political weapon.
• We are able to print billions of dollars to be sent overseas but we cannot even take of ourselves? Our infrastructure is deteriorating. Social Security fund is dwindling. Our veterans are not getting the help they need.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

I am big on regulatory public policy. I am a law-abiding citizen and I truly believe that nobody should be bothered by the government as long they are lawful. The government need to set a basic precedent that simply make sense so that states are not wasting their time and taxpayers money squabbling over nontrivial issues. One should never be attacked because of their gender, age, race and/or sexual orientation. We all think, talk, learn and live differently. Different is good.

Who do you look up to? Whose example would you like to follow, and why?

Mom & Dad. They gave everything they could to me. Mom was a stay-at-home mom while dad traveled a lot for work. Mom fought hard to ensure that my needs was taken care when I was attending school due to my profound deafness. Mom made sure that my ASL interpreters are certified and that my IEP needs are being met. Dad worked so hard to ensure that we have food on the table every single day.

I reckon I got my resilient and kindness from them, they wanted to see me succeed but always taught me help others whatever I can.

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

Transparency, integrity, ethical, and morality.

What legacy would you like to leave?

That it is okay to be different.

What is the first historical event that happened in your lifetime that you remember? How old were you at the time?

Oklahoma City Bombing. I was 4. I only remember this because I saw the picture of the building with its half blown off.

What was your very first job? How long did you have it?

Movie theater usher. I was responsible for taking in tickets and directing people to their correct theater. I usually am the one keeping everything clean by sweeping the floor, wiping down all the arcades, and cleaning after the patrons once the movie is done. I only worked there for a summer because I moved to Washington, DC afterward to attend a boarding school.

Do you believe that it's beneficial for representatives to have previous experience in government or politics?

Sometimes.

What do you perceive to be the United States’ greatest challenges as a nation over the next decade?

Ourselves.

If you are not a current representative, are there certain committees that you would want to be a part of?

1. Education & Labor

2. Science, Space and Technology

3. Ethics

Do you believe that two years is the right term length for representatives?

Yes.

What are your thoughts on term limits?

I am all for it. Majority of people in the Congress have been there almost all of my life. This current generation is completely different than the one they grew up. They claim they understand and know us but in reality, they do not.

Tell us your favorite joke.

Child : "Daddy, I'm hungry!"
Dad : "Hi Hungry, I'm daddy."

Do you believe that compromise is necessary or desirable for policymaking?

Yes. That is the nature of policymaking. Nobody is completely satisfied but it is a success if everybody are happy with the results in the end.
