I'm a former District Leader & Chair of my District with the Board of Elections & Community Youth Leader. I'm the Current Chairman of the Lower Manhattan Conservative Party.As a person with disabilities myself & taking care of a child with special needs & caretaker of my elderly disabled mother i know better than most the need for supportive services and funding for these vital programs, medical providers, hospitals, rehab centers, doctors, nurses to support families & caretakers.

I am a longtime public advocate for people with disabilities & helping them get local, state & federal assistance & supportive services.Jason knows the value of being connected to his neighborhood. That's why he's running for City Council in District 2 to give back to his Community & City which he loves so much & to proudly represent & serve where he's from & to make sure all people in his district are equally represented especially those of all minorities, families, small business owners, veterans, those living in public housing, our youth & the elderly.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Protecting & safeguarding Public Housing & NYCHA fighting for resident rights to affordable housing for all especially those of low income & hard working families, the disabled, homeless & veterans.

Provide more assistance & funding for our local schools within our district so no child is left behind in the 21th century with all the tools to success into productive adults & future leaders of New York.

What qualities does this office possess that makes it a unique and important part of the state government and legal system?

Being apart of the City Council is a vital part of the operating and function of New York City & it's over 8,000,000 residents. We as City Council Members play a key part of the day to day operations of the city and our vital public services in which New Yorkers depend on a daily basis.

Who do you look up to? Whose example would you like to follow, and why?

As i mentioned earlier People like Ronald Reagan, Martin Luther King to give back & serve our great people, city, state & country through public service, faith and being a decent human being god fearing public servant who puts country and god first always is something i aim to be at all times.

Is there a book, essay, film, or something else you would recommend to someone who wants to understand your political philosophy?

Ronald Reagan who without question is one of greatest american success stories & greatest leaders and thinkers of our time & my role model. I hope to become half the man that he was. My Political philosophy echos that of President Reagan that we are a government of we the people & protectors of this democracy and the constitution and we most do everything in our power to protect it at all cost.

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

Leadership is a quality I have consistently demonstrated, often being entrusted to guide others in completing important missions. My approach ensures that those around me also thrive. My ultimate objective is to improve my beloved community & district of the Lower East Side, East Village, Alphabet City and of Lower Manhattan. I have accomplished so much with limited funds, staff, and resources. If provided with the necessary support, I believe the work I am doing can be replicated on a larger scale and amplified across more regions.

What qualities do you possess that you believe would make you a successful officeholder?

For over 20+ years I have worked helping to advocate and make changes in policies for low income, unemployed, homeless, disabled, youth, elderly, housing, domestic violence awareness & support, civil rights, community media, freedom of speech and community resources. There have been much more I have worked on but these I consider my expertise are in. My political outlooks focus more on fiscal transparency, unify the community and civic engagement. I have been able to work on all these because I listen to the people and take action instead of talking about making changes. There is twenty plus years worth of tangible proof of my work all you gotta do is see for yourself through the eyes of all the people who i helped or gave them the power of self empowerment & restored their faith to make them better human beings and overcome anything that was meant to destroy them.

What do you believe are the core responsibilities for someone elected to this office?

To be held accountable by the public & to be a servant to the public, remember that we as elected officials work for the people and not the people work for us.

Someone who shows up not just when things are good & going well but also in times for crisis and in need is what matters the most to me as an elected official.

What legacy would you like to leave?

I would love to leave a legacy of someone who made a difference in my city, state & country even if i have to sacrifice my life to save others.

I want to be known for being a champion & hero of the people and a voice of the voiceless who are often left behind by a broken system and government who has failed to protect us.

What is the first historical event that happened in your lifetime that you remember? How old were you at the time?

I remember 9/11 the attacks against our city and country that day as i was 20 years ago just out of high school and working, producing community media for Manhattan Neighborhood Network cable access station.

I seen and experience first hand the Devastation of that day of the twin towers being attacked and coming down in which we all lost loved ones, friends, family our brave first responders that lost there lives trying to save others through the aftermath i seen the best of New Yorkers regardless of beliefs, race, gender being together, as i was their to help families & survivors in the aftermath in the weeks and months ahead supporting one another as human beings we need more of that now more than ever and i hope running for office to bring more unity and togetherness within our community and city.

What was your very first job? How long did you have it?

As a teenager i started being a community media producer & content creator that started on local cable access television in Manhattan & Brooklyn at 20 years old i became a certified television producer i have since over the next two decades been on & produce Award-Winning Television & Radio Programming throughout National & Worldwide platforms heard & seen by millions of people.

I am the owner & operator of independently run television & radio programming, platforms, stations that is a open platform free from MSM control or government oversight to give everyone a free platform to express their right to free speech regardless of their political views, race, gender.

What is your favorite book? Why?

Martin Luther King Where we go from here is a inspiring message of hope and faith in our fellow man to be greater than we ever thought we can be and to never give up fighting for the rights of all people including us minorities & those of color we all owe it to Dr. King to keep fighting for those rights & protect something that is our god given right.

If you could be any fictional character, who would you want to be?

He-man, The Dark Knight Batman or Harvey Dent to be a protector and champion of the people just like in the comics.

What was the last song that got stuck in your head?

Lee Greenwood - God Bless The U.S.A. is a great song i been hearing lately is reminds me of a time when this country was good and we were led by faith and appreciation to all those who made this country great through their sacrifice and hard work made America what it is and can be again.

What is something that has been a struggle in your life?

Self doubt is something i struggle with since childhood not believing i'm good enough or i done enough to help myself or others but all i gotta do at those times of reflection is look back at all the people i came across over the decades, look at the old photos, videos, stories, letters, memories and i am reminded that the devil is a liar and i am here as a angel & protector of god through christ and i'm here to do gods work and help others.

Are there any little-known powers or responsibilities held by this office that you believe more people should be aware of?

Yes in a way we are just like Congress being City Council members as having broad elected & legislative powers it is the upmost importance that we don't abuse those powers and only use it for the betterment of our residents and citizens.

Do you believe that it's beneficial for holders of this office to have previous experience in government or politics?

Yes & no, in one hand experience is a big plus which gives incoming elected officials ahead start but at the same time sometimes we need people to hold office that are not career politicians or had previous experience. We need more new & fresh ideas and balance of conservative ideas to bring common sense policies instead of more of the same socialist anti business tax & spend democrats who have done much damage to our neighborhoods, communities, districts and city.

What kind of skills or expertise do you believe would be the most helpful for the holders of this office to possess?

To be a people person, in which i mean be relatable to the needs of all New Yorkers not just the well off & the rich but to the rest of us.

To serve the public at all times that without them we hold no power or serve no purpose.

We need to be more efficient and more effective as elected officials and work with others & together to achieve goals and pass legislation without all the bureaucracy we face on a daily basis.

What are your views on financial transparency and government accountability?

I'm not a fan of big government and overspending, raising taxes and unnecessary and excessive taxes that hurts hard working New Yorkers & small businesses, families who are already struggling to survive in these hard times.

I am for smaller effective government & fiscal responsibility that a dollar save is a dollar earn, and that we don't give hand outs but a hand up to our residents, small & big business owners and those who live on public assistance.
