Introduction I am very passionate about the Environment and protecting God's creation.As an educator at Maria Teresa Mirabal Middle School I use environmental education as a way to teach across all subjects.It is my hope that more latino and african american innercity kids from Northern Manhattan become involved in pursuing careers in environmental conservation.In 2005 I founded a "friends of a park" group called the Friends of Sherman Creek,to advocate for the protection, restoration,and conservation of the tidal saltmarsh wetlands of Sherman Creek on the Harlem River,in Northen Manhattan.The mission of the group is to promote environmental education after school programs,public access to the waterfront, and the creation of an Environmental Ecology Center at Sherman Creek.I am a member of the Highbridge Coalition, a group that has been advocating for the reopening of the Highbridge, oldest bridge in New York City(older than Brooklyn Bridge), and a member of the Harlem River Working Group, that brings together the many organizations that work on the harlem River. I am also a member of the First Hispanic Baptist Church of Manhattan in the community of Washington Heights in New York City.
