Personal Life

Arkenstone has lived by himself since graduating college in 2004 at the age of 22. He enjoys doing animal help work and before attempting to become a politician helped run animal clinics. Upon helping in an animal shelter, in 2006 he then adopted his first dog, Stacey, a Yorkie/poodle mix who was 2 years old at the time. Stacey then died in 2018 at the age of 14. In 2019 he decided it was time to adopt an animal again and adopted a Pembroke Corgi named Buddy who was 3 months old at the time of adoption. His work at the animal shelter, as well as his adoption of two dogs, then leads to his passion for saving the environment. This passion has followed him into his career as a politician.
