Welcome to my campaign site! As a long time resident of Nassau County, I have had the pleasure of teaching English literature and Composition at Nassau Community College for over two decades. I am also a community advocate who believes in maintaining a high quality of education for all students. I was recently reelected to a second term on the Hempstead School Board, ensuring a sound foundation for our next generation of leaders. I also serve on the Town of Hempstead IDA Board as well as community partnerships ensuring a better quality of life for all Long Islanders. We need to see improvement throughout our local government, and I am committed to being a part of that change.
