Dear fellow citizen,

​

Thank you for visiting this website to learn about American civics and to enhance your participation in our democracy, advancing the foundations of our Constitutional Republic.

​

As a lifelong resident of Long Island, New York, I have worked as a customer service representative at call centers for some of the most well-known companies in the area. While I excelled in my role and received recognition from management for delivering outstanding customer service, my most memorable and rewarding experience was in 2022 when I worked with the New York State Democratic Committee as a Field Organizer for a Democratic Congressional candidate on Long Island. 

​

As a Field Organizer, I collaborated with a team of like-minded organizers, led by our Field Director, who kept us motivated and focused on meeting daily goals. The work included making over 100 calls each day to recruit volunteers for phone banks and to text voters to encourage their involvement in the campaign. I also canvassed and phone banked to GOTV for the Congressional candidate.

​

After the campaign, on January 1, 2023, I had the pleasure of visiting Albany, New York, to witness the inauguration of Kathy Hochul as governor, Letitia James as Attorney General, and Thomas DiNapoli as State Comptroller. It was an exciting event, and I was invited as a special guest to attend and experience it. After the inauguration, I had the chance to meet the first female Governor of New York in person and take a selfie with her. I am very grateful for this experience.

​

This year is crucial for working people and the vulnerable. The Project 2025 agenda of the MAGA GOP, as dictated by an authoritative regime under the leadership of President Trump, must be stopped. This can be achieved by the Democratic Party winning majorities in both chambers of Congress and making progress at the state and local levels. This can be achieved by inspiring and motivating like-minded, concerned individuals to organize and unite, transforming the current political landscape into one that promotes equity and equality for all.

​

I currently live in western Suffolk County and have decided to petition to become a precinct leader in my local Election District to represent my community. I have reached out to members of the Suffolk County Democratic Committee to make this happen. It’s an exciting time to get involved locally and connect with my neighborhood.

​

In 1996, I worked on a congressional campaign to unseat a long-standing politician who was a key part of the local political machine. I have been following politics and public policy ever since. As I’ve stated before, this year is critical. Our Constitutional Republic faces threats from the reckless policies and ruthless actions of an authoritarian regime under President Trump. This must be stopped. My goal is to do everything I can to end it and to strengthen democracy. That’s the purpose of this website.

​

Thank you very much for taking the time to visit American Civic Power. Let’s advance democracy together!

In solidarity,

​
