Michael Colombo

A proud Staten Islander, Michael was brought up in a working class family that taught him the value of hard work, responsibility, and looking out for one another, formative lessons that helped shape the person he is today. A dad and husband, Michael is proudly not a politician but understands how important it is to have working class leadership that can shine a light on the issues that we face everyday.

An insurance advocate, Michael has built a career fighting to ensure that his clients get all the rights and protections they paid for when they purchased their policy and ensuring that policy holders aren’t disregarded by huge insurance companies. It is in this role that Michael developed the skills, strategies and outside the box thinking that he will use to fight for everyday Staten Islanders as Borough President, to bring new ideas to the forefront to make life more affordable, make the community safer, lessen commute times and give Staten Islanders a voice in shaping the future of our Borough.
