Biography/Position Statement 
During this last year as Treasurer of the Student Government, we have brought fiscal responsibility back in our institution. As Chairman of the Finance Committee, we have balanced the budget and made sure that we know were every one of your dollars is being spent. We have cut spending by removing waste that did not perform. By opening up the organization allocations, we have insured that every organization has an equal and fair chance to have the best possible events. In order to create better student leaders, we have held our student organizations accountable and responsible for their finance.Also, we have built a relationship with our organizations that have been leading us to create programs and events to make the Staten Island Campus the best campus of the St. John’s family. I hope continue this bond during the 2009 – 2010 academic year.
