Candidate for Onadaga County Legislature
35 Years of Service to Syracuse
A local attorney with deep roots in our community. I believe in pragmatic, common-sense solutions that put people first — less bureaucracy, more accountability, and a city where every business and family can thrive.
I am an attorney with 45 years of experience practicing law in the City of Syracuse. My family has practiced law here for three generations. I am running to help out the community and bring honesty, business growth, balance, pragmatism, efficiency and common sense to government.
We have a lot of social problems. The youth are unemployed. Our youth crime rate and violence are way too high. I am forming a not for profit to help with it.
We need fiscal honesty and integrity in the government, economic growth and jobs. Our infrastructure is in poor repair, our water system is 125 years old, roads, fire hydrants etc need to be repaired.
"You identify the problem, analyze it and adopt a cheap, common sense solution that solves the problem without being overly attached to ideological goals at a reasonable price."
Greater efficiency means the same necessary services are delivered at costs people can afford. The inefficient is reformed so necessary services reach every resident at an affordable price.
Business growth is what pays the bills. Syracuse must be competitive with other areas. We cannot unreasonably burden businesses and expect them to compete or locate here. A level playing field for all.
With a career rooted in civil rights litigation, I bring first-hand experience ensuring that every resident of Syracuse — regardless of background — is treated with fairness and dignity under the law.
Your support is essential. I appreciate your input in helping all of us create a better future for Syracuse — one built on honest dialogue, real accountability, and genuine service.
