I didn’t plan on being a peace activist, but here I am.

What is a peace activist?

What does peace-making look like?

Why do I need your help?

John never imagined himself as a peace activist. He is an Electrical Engineer by training. He spent his career at ConEdison of New York, retiring as the Senior Vice President of Electric Operations responsible for the design, operation, maintenance, and construction of the electric distribution system in the 5 boroughs of NYC and Westchester County. Over his career, he dealt with every emergency from 9/11 to Hurricane Sandy. He has spent the last 10 years studying war and its consequences and has become convinced that we require a new paradigm for international relations. John is a grandfather of two and every action he takes in the name of peace is dedicated to help create a future where his grandsons and their generation can flourish.
