New Yorkers deserve elected officials who understand their challenges, uphold their values, and fight for their causes. As a native New Yorker, I have spent my life thinking about ways in which we can build a better, brighter future for our city. I hope to bring fresh ideas to the City Council on how to improve the lives of New Yorkers and ensure that families like mine have an opportunity to build their long-term future in New York City.

In the coming years, we have to address our biggest challenges: building and preserving our middle-income housing, saving our small businesses, improving our public transportation, creating quality schools that prepare students for the 21st century, and ensuring that all New Yorkers have an equal opportunity to the middle class.

My experience in these areas makes me ready and qualified to take on these challenges. Stay tuned over the next few months as we continue to update you on our vision for New York City.
