A member of various citizens boards, commissions, and a servant to the small people of our city, namely our children and their parents.

Why do I want to serve you?

I have not just decided to serve nor have I been coerced by pressure groups. My commitment, dedication and knowledge have been reflective to serve the city and the people of my ward, My abilities include management skills and administrative know-how, and people’s charisma. I am an elected official, Democratic State Committee and Clinton delegate but, more importantly, I have a sensitivity to citizens’ needs and the ability to deliver. Although I’ve lost some, I continue to serve the City and the Ward. I have projected credibility, visibility, integrity and moral responsibility to the city and the people through action.
