I am the president of the Kiwanis Club of Hawthorne,a board member of the Hawthorne Chamber of Commerce, and the treasurer for the Hawthorne Presidents Council.

My family moved to Hawthorne in 1987. Growing up, I always knew I wanted to give back to the community. For the past 15 years, I have served the Hawthorne community in different ways such as – serving at senior luncheons and performing grocery deliveries providing scholarships to local high school students, main chef at Hawthorne Police Department K-9 dinners, community BBQ’s and so much more. I am also a member of the Islamic Center of Hawthorne, and I have been an active member for over 15 years. During the month of Ramadan, the Islamic Center and I have been responsible for Iftar dinners and Suhoor serving over 300 fasting Muslims. I have been honored with several proclamations through many organizations such as Kiwanian of the Year, City of Hawthorne Volunteer Appreciation Day and assisting with the cooking for the annual Juneteenth celebration. That’s just to name a few.

Aside from my community work, I am a small business owner in the City of Hawthorne. I transport district students with special needs to and from school.
Better paying jobs or learn a trade skill.

Accountability and transparency.
Youth leader and mentor.

Bringing in more small businesses to our community.
My father and my mother they are my superheroes and they molded me to the young man I am today.
Holding public office should not be about gaining power, notoriety, selfish interest, and personal wealth. These are not qualifications elected officials should have.

An effective office holder must perform the ultimate balancing act, making decisions to meet the needs of his or her constituency—the rich and the poor, the young and the elderly, the needs of minorities and the majority, the privileged and the disenfranchised, all while adhering to governing laws and regulations.
I am a community leader. I am a president of two organizations a Treasurer For one organization I’ve Always been there for my community and good times and bad times and I have always sacrificed myself to make sure others are well taken care of including my family.
I believe that transparency and accountability is key. I also believe that we should always listen to our constituents and make ourselves available to them and their needs also to our small businesses and staff.
A legacy that people will always remember the good I did for my community
My wife gave birth to our beautiful daughter. I am so happy because this is the only girl in the family and that happened last year.
My first job was at a grocery store and I held that job for 5 years.
We must always hold our elected officials accountable and make sure that we elect the right candidates to perform the job they were elected to do.
