Current Occupation	Founder, Civic Technology Creator, and Electoral Organizer
Tagline	Building the tools and doing the work to help Democrats win.
Bio	I run for office, organize voters, and build civic technology — because I believe democracy works best when more people actively participate. In 2015, I ran as the Democratic candidate for the Nassau County Legislature, representing a district of 35,000 residents, on a platform of government transparency and fiscal accountability. In 2022, I served as a Field Organizer for the New York State Democratic Committee, managing 100+ daily voter contacts through NGP VAN and leading a team of 100+ volunteers in canvassing, phone banking, and voter registration across Long Island. I currently serve as an elected Election District Leader for the Suffolk County Democratic Committee in the Town of Huntington. I am the founder of American Civic Power (americancivicpower.com) and the creator of CivicSphere (mycivicsphere.com) — a full-stack civic technology platform featuring live congressional data, AI-powered bill summaries, constituent voting tools, and representative vote comparisons. The platform is built on my 12 Points of Good Governance framework and introduces original civic vocabulary — CIVESTOR™, CIVEST™, and CIVESTMENT™ — reframing citizenship from passive taxpayer to active civic investor. My professional background spans nearly 35 years of high-volume customer service across healthcare, banking, energy, and technology — equipping me with the communication, compliance, and organizational skills that make me an effective organizer and advocate. I am actively seeking opportunities in field organizing, political media, civic technology, or electoral communications for the 2026 cycle.

Impact	My most direct political impact has come through organizing, running for office, and technology. As a Field Organizer for the New York State Democratic Committee in 2022, I managed more than 100 daily voter contacts via NGP VAN and led a team of more than 100 volunteers across canvassing, phone banking, and voter registration. Our efforts contributed to measurable increases in voter engagement across multiple Long Island districts during a critical election cycle. In 2015, I ran as the Democratic candidate for the Nassau County Legislature’s 17th District, building a full campaign from scratch — fundraising, recruiting volunteers, developing messaging, and bringing issues such as government transparency and fiscal oversight to a district of 35,000 residents. As an elected Election District Leader for the Suffolk County Democratic Committee, I oversee a 270-voter district in the Town of Huntington — managing direct mail, digital outreach, and community engagement programs to keep voters connected between election cycles. Through CivicSphere, I have built technology that makes it easier for everyday constituents to track legislation, understand how their representatives vote, and engage in the democratic process — bringing civic power directly to the people who need it most.
Mission	My mission is to strengthen democracy by bridging the gap between citizens and their government — through organizing, technology, and direct civic action. With a critical election cycle underway in 2026, I am focused on contributing full-time to Democratic campaigns, progressive organizations, and civic initiatives that engage voters, build community power, and elect candidates who will defend democratic institutions and advance equity and government accountability. I founded American Civic Power and built CivicSphere because I believe an informed, engaged citizenry is the foundation of a functioning democracy. I coined the term “civestor” to reframe how we view civic participation — not as a passive obligation but as an active investment in the communities we share. Whether I am knocking on doors, training volunteers, building a platform, or running for office, my goal remains the same: more people participating, more voices heard, and more Democrats winning.
