I have dedicated over 40 years of my life to community and public service.

I know the New York City courts extremely well because I have worked as a Court Attorney to different judges in every trial court in the city. I worked in Civil, Criminal, Family, and Supreme Court. I have also practiced before these very courts as a private practitioner. I have represented people from all walks of life and have fought to give each and every client a voice in the courtroom.

Being raised by a single immigrant mother has provided me with the strong work ethic, the tolerance, and the balanced judgment it takes to interact with people from all walks of life. My profound understanding of New York City makes me ideally equipped to serve with Dignity, Honor and Fairness.

‍These are the values that have allowed to serve so many of our communities with the keen legal sharpness, measure and knowledge they deserve, and they’re the values I will take to the bench as a Bronx Civil Court Judge.
