Myself, I know Mark is also up to this task as a member of the Klamath Tribes himself. His upbringing and experience will give him an insight into this role that very few have.

I'm so proud of Mark for how far he has come since those days when I first met and began to work, and we began to work together. (04:34–04:40)
