Info

Bob has a simple vision for restoring the prosperity and faith of New York State voters:

Runaway taxes and state spending must be stopped before they do more damage to our economy and our future;
State representatives must serve the public, rather than their own interests and those of their parties.
A proven business leader and avid community volunteer, Bob has the insight, experience and integrity needed to fulfill his vision. Bob was born and raised on Long Island, where he learned at a very early age the value of hard work, civic responsibility, and education. After graduating from Syracuse University and Emory Law School in Atlanta, he moved back to New York to pursue his career and start a family.

Bob currently owns and operates a small real estate and construction company in Manhattan. For over 25 years, he has dedicated himself to transforming underdeveloped residential properties into attractive, affordable spaces for families, students and entrepreneurs. Thanks to the vision, process and discipline he brings to planning and budgeting, he has achieved a record of notable business success.

Bob and his wife Barbara have been committed members of the Scarsdale community since moving to town in 1989. Bob has been a member of the Scarsdale Volunteer Fire Department for 17 years, and served as a Lieutenant for six years. He is also a member of the non-partisan Town and Village Civic Club Education Forum, serves on the Judicial Advisory Committee, and like many parents, coached his children's sports teams. Bob and Barbara have been members of the Beth El Synagogue in New Rochelle for the past 20 years.

Bob and Barbara have three children; Adam (24), a graduate of Stanford University; Jessica (22), a senior at Washington University in St Louis; and Haley (17), a senior at Scarsdale High School. The entire family attended public schools and are strong supporters of educational excellence.

Bob has a keen understanding of what will be needed to take on the political bosses in Albany, and return our state to prosperity. A vote for Bob is a vote for the people of New York.
