REPUBLICAN

BACKGROUND:

  • He also has represented asylum seekers from China.
  • Prior to his law career, he worked in the mortgage business.
  • This is his first run for public office.
  • He has a bachelor’s degree from Montclair State University, a master’s degree from St. John’s University and a law degree from Touro University.
