Sam just finished his junior year of high school but has already dedicated a lot of his time to politics. He is the host of a conservative podcast, Northeast Director for High School Republican National Federation, and has worked on 7 political campaigns (Presidential, US Senate, State Senate, Governor x2, Board of Supervisors, Sheriff). What I found super impressive and interesting about Sam is that the reason he got into politics was that at a young age he noticed a lot of people liked to complain about the country and the political issues we faced but weren't doing much about it. So rather than join in on the complaining, he decided to get involved and try to do something to make things better. It speaks directly to his value of passion and dedication for what you believe in. Many people, myself included at times, judge younger kids for getting involved in politics. The thought being they don't have enough perspective or aren't qualified to have an opinion. But I think there is a lot us older folk can learn from someone (at any age) who sees a problem and decides to take action to try to solve it. I was also really impressed by Sam's perspective. He is a conservative but he truly understands the importance of engaging in healthy dialogue with people who have different views. He believes in making his own decisions not just following party lines, even if that means some people in his own party might not like it. We did spend some time towards the end of the conversation getting into some specific political issues too. We thought it would be good to try to model some of that healthy dialogue and explore topics like the Russia/Ukraine situation or gun control from different perspectives. I think it is obviously true that younger people can see the world in a simplified way (but to be fair so can a lot of adults), but I was really encouraged and impressed by Sam's willingness to listen to other perspectives and ultimately try to let the truth "win out" vs. a personal agenda or political beliefs. I really hope he keeps this approach as he continues his career in politics, as it is much needed.

Jim Akenson has led a full and adventurous life. He and his wife, Holly, spent over two decades living in the extremely remote Frank Church Wilderness where they served as caretakers for University of Idaho's Taylor Research Station. While at Taylor, Jim and Holly studied bighorn sheep, cougars, bobcats, wolves, and made countless contributions to our understanding of wildlife biology. For the past 5 years, Jim was the Conservation Director for Oregon Hunters Association, and recently became their Northeast Director of the Board. As a hunter and naturalist, Jim is the perfect advocate for western hunters and is probably the best person to explain all the proposed changes that will likely impact archery hunting in Oregon.

In this time of digital acceleration, the digital divide is growing. Tune in to this #NomadFuturist podcast and learn how David Neeman and James Patrignelli, agents for good, are stepping up to the problem. David Neeman worked for ten years as a prosecutor in the Manhattan DA’s office, motivated by a desire to help people, especially young people. During his tenure he became deeply aware of the tragic dimension of so many people’s lives. As he became involved with community service programs, Neeman came to understand the need for underprivileged youth to have access to technology. This realization led to his establishing The Loyalty Foundation. “The future is technology. If you don’t have access to the technology, you don’t have access to the future.” At the advent of the Covid crisis, Neeman decided to help a student who didn’t have a computer. “I was able to purchase a refurbished Chromebook for one hundred dollars. We moved money around in the budget to be able to buy it. …he was so happy…he was in every class, doing everything, pushing hard, amazing!” This initial success led to an ever-growing outreach both to community organizations helping underserved youth as well as a network of donors who wished to help. The need to find affordable computers led to Neeman’s association with James Patrignelli, the Northeast Director of Sales for Liquid Technologies, an IT asset disposition firm based in Connecticut. Patrignelli explains the issue of proper handling of personal data on legacy machines. “We want to provide a path for people to be able to donate their assets and feel comfortable and secure.” Neeman talks about the complex challenges that he and his partners are facing, including issues such as lack of broadband access as well as parents who may be both financially and digitally challenged. “The digital equity issue is so massive, It’s not just the computer or the device. It goes into many different areas and we try to be a trusted community guide and partner, someone they know that they can rely upon.” Neeman’s excitement and passion are infectious. He and Patrignelli are entrepreneurs for good, sharing a deeply felt mission. They have tapped into a community of like-minded people – a network of good actors who are trying to make a difference and change people’s lives. Neeman’s guiding principal: “Keep finding the way back your heart, to what matters.” David Neeman is the Founder & Chairman of The Loyalty Foundation, established to introduce and augment technology education programs in underserved communities ensuring all children, irrespective of race, gender or socioeconomic status, have equal access to critical educational opportunities. By inspiring and instilling a love of technology, the Loyalty Foundation helps students develop the knowledge, skills and self-esteem they need to succeed in today and tomorrow’s economy. Prior to this, David served as Prosecutor at the Manhattan District Attorney for ten years. James Patrignelli is the Director of Sales, Northeast for Liquid Technology. He joined Liquid in 2011 as a Senior Account Manager. James works with executives to develop and implement end-of-life IT asset management programs for Fortune 500 companies with a focus on data security and maximizing the return of IT hardware. He has worked in the IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) field since 2005 and has advised CIOs, CTOs and data center managers across the globe about best practices for end-of-life IT asset management. James received a B.S. in Business Administration and Management Information Systems from the University of Connecticut and studied overseas in Italy for his second degree in International Economics.
