John was born in York, PA, to teenage parents. His father worked nights to put himself through Albright College, where John too would graduate before earning a Masters in Public Policy from Harvard University.
After Harvard, John returned to Pennsylvania to start a GED program in the town of Braddock. As mayor, he focused on turning Braddock–a town facing many obstacles–into a thriving and growing community, attracting new residents and new jobs, and breaking the former cycle of violence plaguing the town. Now he’s ready to be the champion for working people and struggling towns like Braddock all over Pennsylvania.
