What brought you to Freemasonry?
The short answer is, a friend brought me in, but that would be a very underwhelming response. I was driven by cusiosity initially, but later on through investigation, asking questions and talking to friends who are members, I discovered many aspects that are important to me. The most important one being charity. Freemasons are by far the most charitbale institution in the world and the work being done for the community and people in need is unparalleled.

What is something most people do not know about you?
I enjoy playing and following chess
What does the word legacy mean to you?
"Your legacy is every life you've touched" This is one of the favorite sayings I've ever read, said by Maya Angelou. It's what we do today and every day that passes that defines our future legacy.
What was your first lodge meeting like?
I remember that I was really nervous, I didn't know what to expect, but really quickly I started feeling comfortable with everyone and everything around me. The brethren at this lodge made sure of that and I am so glad they did.
