Today, I registered my 80th Conservative voter of the year. For the past two years, I’ve signed up over 100 new members annually—not because I want to, but because it’s necessary. There is a mission behind every signature, and a strategy behind every conversation.
When I meet new candidates, I tell them a simple rule: Register 50 new Conservatives. Why? Because those will be your donors, your volunteers, your campaign team, the people who fill your events—not strangers, but your base. Do it right, and they become your support network. In my case, they became family.
Most New Yorkers don’t even know the Conservative Party exists. They know Democrats and Republicans. Truth is, I didn’t know much about the Conservative Party either until three years ago. And for many people, the word “conservative” still brings to mind an angry old man yelling about immigration and race. I won’t pretend that stereotype never existed—but I refuse to let it define us anymore.
Conservatism, at its core, stands for something greater: the rule of law, family, tradition, limited government, free markets, and above all—fiscal responsibility. These are not talking points. These are the principles I live by, and the foundation of every decision I make.
Ask yourself:
- Do you believe in a higher power?
- Do you support law and order?
- Do you want to build a business and keep what you’ve earned?
- Do you dream of a stable household, strong family, and a future better than your past?
- Do you still believe in the American Dream?
If your answer is “yes,” then you understand why I am a Conservative and why I want you to be my next conservative voter.
If you live in the Bronx, I invite you to sit down with me. Let’s talk politics, share ideas, and register you into the movement. If you live outside the borough, I’ll help connect you with your local representative—we are growing everywhere.
Recently, The Bronx Journal called me the “face of Bronx Conservatism.” This year, I ran for New York City Public Advocate and received more votes than any Republican in a citywide race. I didn’t win the office, but I was re-elected Vice Chairman of the Bronx Conservative Party and re-elected District Leader of the 79th Assembly District. That tells me something simple—people may not agree with everything I say, but they know I fight for them.
If you want to learn more about my work, my interviews, and campaign record, visit my website or press page. Over the coming weeks, I’ll be updating it with new plans, projects, and volunteer opportunities.

This isn’t just about politics. It’s about rebuilding faith in community, responsibility, and the American Dream—right here in the Bronx, one voter at a time.
