Candidate Statement
Running for New York State Assembly 38th District in Queens. The district covers parts of Ridgewood, Glendale, Woodhaven, Richmond Hill, and Ozone Park. I am a first generation Italian-American whose family emigrated from Italy back in 1958. Born and Raised in Ridgewood, NY. First in his family to graduate with a bachelors degree in Criminal Justice and Minor in Law.
I actually live in the 38th District and have worked numerous jobs in the community. So, I understand the current struggles/issues within our community. South of Queens is underrepresented and continuously has insufficient resources. The 38th District needs someone who has an agenda, who can combat homelessness, provide for the community, and uplift the district.
