Hey Family 👋🏽

The Long Island Railroad strike reminded me of something powerful:

Life doesn’t stop because things get harder. You adjust.

What used to take me less than an hour took almost two. But I still made it to work. Still handled my responsibilities. Still got home to my family.

Parenting a child with autism is no different. I have 2 I know.

You may need a different route.
Different tools.
Different strategies.
More patience.
More learning.

But never give up on your child’s independence just because the journey looks different.

Adjust. Learn. Keep going.

Because once we give up on our children, the world will too.

I Am DAD & so can you.

Families like mine deserve to be seen.🧩

The world can’t understand or accept us if we stay hidden because of fear.

IAmDAD x Daddy Day is about changing that narrative.
We’re showing up, stepping outside, and creating real moments, real memories, and real impact.

Fathers are present. Fathers are leading. Fathers are here.

And ableism won’t disappear on its own… so we’re doing something about it.

Together, we came outside, had fun, and showed what community really looks like.

Huge thank you to the , , David Aldridge, and Justin Champagnie for supporting this experience.
And thanks to all the phenomenal sponsors who made it possible for other families to attend…that was truly priceless.

Stay tuned for more.

I am DAD and So Can You 💯

Family Bingo Night at P4Q 🎉

It’s not just about winning… it’s about showing up, laughing, and building community together.

Winning (and eating 😅) just makes it even better.

D75… we outside 💪🏽

February 25, 2026.

I stood before the Panel for Educational Policy as President of CEC 28, President of QHSPC, VP of the D75 Presidents’ Council…

But most importantly as A Proud Present Loving Dad.

I spoke for the families who couldn’t be there.

The proposals passed.

Now more kids can attend school in their own neighborhoods. Less travel time, more safety, more access.

This is why we speak up.
Because if we don’t… who will?

Holding myself accountable.

Thank you and , we’re in this together. 💪🏾
Together, we’ve watched Quintus grow and thrive beyond his IEP goals.
This is just the beginning, and I’m here for it.

I am DAD, and so can you.
Let’s commit as parents, as fathers, as families to run toward the obstacles, jump over them, climb higher, speak louder, and most importantly, love stronger. ❤️

We got this. 💪🏽🙌🏾💪🏽
