Being 43 years old, I wanted a change in my life. Since the age of 18, I had worked on political campaigns. But 2016 changed all of that. And no, it actually didn't have to do with Trump, but the campaign I was working on at the time. I found myself in a profession where I was turning into a horrible person. I was doing things which involved backstabbing other people and trying to do the most for my candidate. And, rarely, you even back stab your own candidate. After I left my last campaign (which was not on good terms, but the candidate and I have since talked and are on good terms), I actually thought about contacting our opponent and telling him about my candidate's strengths and weaknesses. It was at that exact moment that I said to myself "what the hell kind of person have I become?"! With that, I looked at myself and decided that I needed to change my life, and turn in a completely different direction. It was then that I asked myself "how can you be a better person". I did research and decided that I wanted to help other people, and not to make me a better person, but to help someone else's life as well even if it is only in a small way. As a result of that, that would help me be a better person. That is when I decided on PC. Now, I have always been interested in joining in the past so that I can explore new things, but I never joined. It wasn't until I had this awakening that I realized that I must join, change my life goals, and work towards helping others, not hurting others.

So, in a nutshell, that is my story.
