3. What makes you the best candidate for this office?

On September 15th, supporting Tracy L. Boyland at the ballot box will give us the opportunity to make a difference in Oceanhill, Brownville, Crown Heights, Bedford Stuyvesant, and East flatbush.

My candidacy for the NYC Council is an opportunity to shift the direction in which the community us heading. That is why, I am renewing my commitment to improving the quality of life for all New Yorkers. Sitting by the sidelines talking about the problems of our community is not a solution. You need a Councilmember who can get the job done at City Hall while addressing our concerns and issues.

I am running to ensure that the Mayor hears your voice at City Hall and our community has the resources to address the issues facing our children, adults and seniors. Your support is crucial.
