My role at VOID: In October of 2005, I set up a new web site called Vote Out Incumbents Democracy where like minded folks could congregate and develop an action plan to start making a positive difference in countering the increasingly corrupt political system and government we witness today. The concept snowballed with enthusiastic supporters and the rest, as they say, is history.

My previous roles as president of a homeowner's association, and arts executive director, as well as counselor, claims adjuster, and stage theater performer, afford me the experience and knowledge to function as an integral part of this Poltical Action Committee which, I am proud to serve. Integrity, honesty, and the ability to respond appropriately to challenges are what I strive to bring, and hope for in all who participate in this all-volunteer organization.

I have found no shortage of such attributes in the admirable folks who have stepped forward to become volunteers, directors, and supporters of this immensely important organization for our times. My role is that of coordinator for the leaders in our organization who work diligently with their spare time to set our nation's government back on a footing of responsibility, accountability, and transparency, toward the goal of insuring America's future can be secure, prosperous, and free from undo government intrusion into our personal lives.

My role is also to insure that responsibility, accountability, and transparency remain the core principles which Vote Out Incumbents Democracy exemplifies in all of its functions and actions. We cannot expect from government, what we don't expect of ourselves. Being an all volunteer organization means no person working with VOID receives any compensation. Every penney of donations and dues are spent on growing our organization and fulfilling our mission.
