He has been managing political teams, programs, and events ever since. 

Jesus was thrilled when offered the opportunity to be the Illinois State Director for Rural Development. He was born and raised in Illinois, and believes it is a tremendous honor to help develop and assist the people of the Land of Lincoln.

Jesus and his wife, Claire, are delighted to be expecting their firstborn.
