For three Glen Cove women, being in the political arena is not only a passion, but also a balancing act.
“I already juggle work and family, so I do what needs to be done,” said Kristina Heuser, one of three women running for City Council on the Republican ticket.
Heuser, a lawyer with a local practice and resident since 2008, has two daughters, both under 8 years old.
“My children are my priority,” she said. “I try to be a good role model. I bring them to fundraisers, and they campaign with me.”
Filomena “Mena” Ricciardi, candidate and resident for over 25 years, works full time for a non-profit organization, and part time as a consultant for a company in the defense industry.
Ricciardi was actively involved in the four-year mayoral term referendum, saying she was “passionate” about the issue.
