I have the experience, drive and proven track record to take bold, decisive, results-oriented action to bring about the change we need right now.
My parents grew up poor and in a country plagued by a murder rate that is four times higher than that of the US. But my parents believed in better and in the opportunity that a good education could afford my brothers and me. Education would become my passport to a better life. And it is that belief that led me to the US and to Harvard University where I earned a Master’s of Public Policy on a full scholarship. And then to a career focused on transforming education.
I am an experienced manager who has worked in business, government, and the nonprofit sector. For the past decade, I have helped educators create great school options for low-income children. I am the Founding Board Chair of Brooklyn RISE Charter; a public K-5 school serving 150 students in Sunset Park. I am also the co-founder of the New York State Charter Parent Council, a network of more than 350 families advocating for their schools across the state. And finally, I was recently elected to serve as Vice-President of the District 2 Community Education Council.
- EDUCATION IS THE KEY TO FUTURE OPPORTUNITY FOR OUR CHILDREN
- PUBLIC SAFETY IS NOT A CONCEPT, BUT A REALITY THAT WE NEED TO ADDRESS IMMEDIATELY
- SMALL BUSINESSES ARE THE BACKBONE OF OUR COMMUNITY AND NEED REAL ECONOMIC RECOVERY
As a mother, I'm also very concerned about the safety of our communities. I grew up in a violent society and know how crime damages families, local businesses and the very fabric of our communities. A fear of public transportation or walking our streets is not acceptable. I will work to ensure we have safety and justice; and a restored rule of law.
Leaving kids without instruction for so long has been devastating and will require an enormous amount of work to reverse.
