IN THE COMMUNITY


We had an amazing time representing the Bronx and celebrating the end of Pride Month at this year’s NYC Pride Parade! Thank you to everyone who joined us!



A spectacular Bronx Fireworks Extravaganza!


I want to thank the Bronx Economic Development Corporation, the Bronx Tourism Council, our sponsors, our emcee Monica Morales, performers, and everyone who joined us at Orchard Beach!



Happy Caribbean Heritage Month!


Thank you to all our honorees, emcees, performers, and everyone who attended our Annual Caribbean Heritage Month Celebration at the Andrew Freedman Home.


We danced, we ate, and we showcased our Caribbean pride!


A special shout-out to Trinidad and Tobago!



As the greenest borough in the city, we are excited about the addition of Davidson Park to our West Bronx community!


With accessible ramps, spray showers, swings, benches, and other play equipment, there is something for everyone to enjoy.


This was a project we advocated for as part of our Jerome Neighborhood Plan while in the City Council and I want to thank NYC Parks, the NYC Mayor`s Office, Community Board 5, Parks advocates, and everyone else who played a vital role in helping to bring this project to fruition.
