Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I'm a blessed father, very lucky husband and a self employed handyman. I've been a community activist for a few years putting my feet on the ground and putting my hands on some serious issues in the south suburbs. I created the South Suburban Public Safety which has installed over 250 security cameras, exterior lights, and video doorbells at no cost for my labor. I care deeply about our neglected and blighted areas in south Cook County, and want to serve the people as an engaged and reachable advocate and public servant.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• Restoration of the Southland improvement of public safety and community engagement
• Putting the people and their well being over everything else
• Never support new or higher taxes

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Public safety, and getting abandoned properties back on the tax rolls to reduce the burden of taxpayers. Restoring the Southland to what it once was, full of businesses, families, and people who were proud of where they lived.
