LET’S KEEP OAKLAND PARK ON THE RISE!

Dear Oakland Park Family,

I am a proud lifelong resident of Broward County and even more proud to have built my first home in Oakland Park just over 15 years ago. One of my absolute best decisions. I am both proud and excited to now offer myself as your choice for Oakland Park Commissioner on November 8th. My 20 years of skills and experience as a Legal Cultivator and Custodian of Foreign and Domestic Intellectual Property Portfolios totaling over $15 Billion Dollars (Communications and Pharmaceuticals Industries) places me in the best position to safeguard and steward the fiscal and operational affairs of our great city.

I am a proud graduate of the University of Phoenix with a BS degree in Business Management and a graduate of Nova Southeastern University with an honors MS degree in Criminal Justice. My foundational pillars of service are accountability, reliability, and credibility. All exemplified by my entrepreneurial parents who operated a business for over 25 years in the heart of Broward County and who demonstrated the dedication of community servants.
