About MJK

I was born and raised in Washington DC, the capital of politics. I have a background in law and finance, and have funded and consulted for various technology-related small businesses. I currently reside in New York city. I truly enjoy discussing, debating, and thinking about global political and social issues. After many years, I was encouraged to start my own blog so that I could share my ideas at large, and learn from the comments and interactions with the general public. From an ideological perspective, I would consider myself a moderate-conservative, but often take centrist positions on certain issues.
