MEET
Heriberto Mateo
I have over 36 years of varied and enriching work experience, much of which was acquired while I attended college. I have worked as a clerk, production and warehouse supervisor, admissions and financial aid officer, and as a director and principal human rights specialist. In addition, I have taught Drama and Physical Education to young adults.
I have been deeply involved in community affairs. I have been involved in cultural, social, political as well as charitable activities in Cypress Hills, Bushwick, and East New York communities. Some of my accomplishments in the City Council District 37 are the construction of a new building for P.S. 7 in Cypress Hills and the renovation of San Martin de Porres Day Care Center in Bushwick.
“We are laying a strong foundation for our district's long-term growth.”
