Welcome

When you run for School Board the question most often asked is, "why are you running for School Board?" My response was always "because I believe I have something to offer". That is the same reason why I'm running for NYS Assembly. I believe I have something to offer the residents of the 124th Assembly District. 

​

My background and experience in business will be an asset to the 124th District. Some families in our district are struggling and you have to understand their plight. Having struggled recently myself, as a small business owner I had to close my Ad Agency in August 2017.

​

The district faces challenges with a shrinking population and stagnant job growth. It will take a collective effort from elected officials, residents and business leaders to attract and maintain jobs and residents to the region.
