Before I began working in local government, I worked as a public school special education teacher, was a union leader, and I was a member of the award winning Jewish acapella group, Six13. I love spending time with my family, enjoying NYC's parks and open spaces, grabbing a slice of pizza, and I am forever a superhero fan! Excited to see what questions you have for me.
