What makes you the right candidate for the job?
I’m qualified, experienced and ready to take Massachusetts DeMolay to the next level. 
 
What is your favorite event?
My favorite event this year was Winterfest 
 
What new event, if any, would you add to the state program?
I would add a Membership Summit to the program because it would help out chapters grow in size and strength. 
 
How can you improve Massachusetts DeMolay?
I am determined to elevate Massachusetts DeMolay to new heights by bringing it back to the chapters and supporting them in anything they need; I want to help them grow in size and create new and fun memories for every member. 
 
What virtue in the Crown of Youth do you aspire to the most?
I aspire to always be courteous to anyone I come in contact with. I feel that first impressions are important and being courteous to everyone will set you over the edge and keep you in the minds of many. 
 
What is your favorite office in DeMolay?
My favorite office is Senior Deacon.  
 
If you could meet one famous person who would it be and why?
I would meet President Franklin D. Roosevelt. While JFK is my favorite president, FDR will stand in the history books as one of the best presidents in America. His humility and the determination he brought to the office of President of the United States is something I strive to emulate when being a State Officer. 
 
What is one thing you want to improve upon as a person?
I want to improve upon being more open to everyone which will help me project my own thoughts and opinions while listening to others around me.  
 
What is your favorite band?

What is one fun fact about yourself?
I have a great memory. For example, I have seen every episode of Scooby Doo: Where are you? And can recite most of them from memory.
