How can you help voters in a way that others running for this office cannot?
Significant Business Experience.
For more than 44 years, I have built a career based on leadership, accountability, and service. After spending 18 years with Marriott, I proceeded to build and operate my own hospitality company, Haberhill LLC, in 2000, growing it into a successful business that at its peak owned five hotels, with 4,600 rooms, employing nearly 2,000 people, generating more than $300 million in sales and $84 million of operating profit.
What would you hope to be remembered for accomplishing after serving in this office?
Leaving Nassau County in better long term fiscal shape and changing the relationship of the county commission to its constituents
