Frank Underwood…

Frank has taught me to be open, to think outside the box and to be creative.  I admire his focus, his resilience and his passion.  With a clear vision and a desire for better, he came from humble beginnings and proceeded to play the cards he was dealt to later become the most powerful person […]
