I am a Service Connected Disabled Veteran, I served in the US Air Force and I am openly Gay. I have been active in Philadelphia politics most of my life, I followed in the foot-steps of my late father. My employment has been with the Government both local and Federal. I have always had a passion for the law and have often been mistaken as an attorney, which was my life dream, however due to my fathers health I had to leave collage. I am a defender of the under-dog and I am currently active in Gay Rights abuse causes as well as Veterans Rights violations and homelessness due to the negligent claims process and lack of accountability at the Dept. Of Vet Affairs.
