Anthony Yacub
A Strong Pickering First Voice
About
I am a resident of Pickering Ward 1 (Amberlea). Upon receiving a Bachelor of Arts in Economics from York University, I gained valuable experience in the financial sector before becoming the small business owner of AAA Wellness and Rehab Inc., a medical centre located in Scarborough.
I consider myself an economist. This allows me to pinpoint and critically examine existing resources and maximize their potential to foster the flourishing community that I wish to represent.
