An East Harlem native, Matthew served on Manhattan CB11 for 10 years, becoming chair at just 26. He’s also served on many nonprofit boards, knows the real estate industry, and is a major environmental advocate. He’s a mentor to the countless interns my office hosts.

Congratulations to Deputy Borough President @MatthewStephenW on being named to @CityAndStateNY‘s NYC 40 Under 40 Class of 2018!

Matthew is a true public servant who helps people all day long — my office wouldn’t be the same without him. https://t.co/W1TT8EpckO pic.twitter.com/EmljWktPwS
