Priorities:
1) Public Safety
2) Economic Development
3) Marketing and Promotions
Qualifications and Assets:
I have been in marketing and sales for over 30 years. I have worked in many restaurants, retail businesses, sales organizations, from mom and pop to a $25 billion dollar multinational. My father and I have owned several businesses and for the last 2 years, I have owned a neighborhood business with my wife. Along with my wife and two boys have been living in the neighborhood since 2018. I can bring a diverse business acumen and background to help the business in the neighborhood survive and thrive.
Vision:
Safety is first because I have witnessed the city decline over the last few years due to the crime. The lack of city pride and respect for others needs to be addressed… it is the city of brotherly love, for God’s sake! And if people don’t feel safe, they’re headed elsewhere. Economic development is next because the pandemic and public safety concerns have taken a toll on local businesses. Marketing and promotions are a way to help realize both of the previous initiatives.
