I am deeply honored to receive the unanimous endorsement of all five Republican Party county committees in New York City for my candidacy for New York City Public Advocate. This moment marks a humbling milestone in my political journey—a journey that began not with ambition, but with service.
At the age of 18, like many young people, I registered to vote without fully understanding the political landscape. I was raised with the belief that Democrats stood for the poor and Republicans for the rich. That simple perspective shaped my initial registration. But life, experience, and service have a way of reshaping how we see the world.
Shortly after registering, I enlisted in the United States Marine Corps. Serving my country changed me forever. When I returned home to the Bronx, I saw my community—and our political system—with new eyes. I witnessed firsthand how entrenched the Democratic Party had become in every level of local government, and how a culture of political monopoly had stifled real progress and accountability.
Although I’ve always viewed myself as a moderate—pragmatic, solution-oriented, and focused on results—I came to realize that New York City’s political machine is not built for people like me. I wasn’t looking for power. I was looking for a way to serve.
I reached out to every political party in the city, both major and minor. Only one opened its door: the Conservative Party. They took a chance on me when no one else would, and I will never forget that. Since then, I’ve worked relentlessly to earn the respect and trust of the Republican Party.
After my first campaign, I returned with greater determination. In my second attempt, the Republican Party gave me the opportunity to run as their candidate. And now, to receive citywide support from every Republican County Committee for one of the highest offices in the city in my third attempt—I am truly at a loss for words.
I am grateful beyond measure. I pledge to represent the values of the Republican Party with integrity, compassion, and strength. I thank every member who voted for me and every leader who gave me their confidence. To those still uncertain about my candidacy—I look forward to earning your trust and your support.
This campaign is not just about politics. It’s about saving New York City. It’s about restoring common sense, accountability, and opportunity to a city that has been hijacked by radical ideologies and failed leadership.
If you believe in this mission, I invite you to stand with me. Help fuel this campaign with your energy, your support, and yes—your contributions. Every dollar helps us print materials, reach voters, and keep our volunteers hydrated and supported as we canvass every borough of this city.
Together, we can bring balance back to New York. Together, we can give the people a voice.
Thank you, and God bless New York City.
