The son of Cuban immigrants who fled Castro\u2019s regime, he grew up watching his father scrub dishes and his mother clean houses to give their children a better life. From those modest beginnings, Hernandez went on to earn advanced degrees from the University of Florida, Yale, and Oxford, build a career as a scientist and entrepreneur, and take five companies public. Now, he\u2019s aiming for his boldest challenge yet: running for mayor of New York City.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Hernandez\u2019s life story begins in Camag\u00fcey, Cuba, where his father ran a small business until the communist government seized it. When Hernandez was just seven, his father was imprisoned and spent months in a coma from encephalitis. The family risked everything to leave Cuba, arriving in America with little more than hope. In Chicago, they started over\u2014his father washing dishes, his mother cleaning homes\u2014but they never let hardship define them. They taught Joseph that hard work, faith, and education could open doors. \u201cMy parents taught us to work hard, to have faith, to get educated, and to love our adopted country,\u201d he says. \u201cThat, they said, would change the course of my life. And they were right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">That lesson fueled Hernandez\u2019s drive to achieve. The first in his family to attend college, he earned a degree in neuroscience, followed by a master\u2019s in molecular genetics and microbiology and an MBA from the University of Florida. He later added a master\u2019s in epidemiology and biostatistics from Yale and is currently pursuing a Global Healthcare Leadership degree at Oxford. Those years of rigorous study shaped his belief in data-driven decisions and innovative problem-solving.<\/p>\n<h2>A Scientist and Entrepreneur\u2019s Plan to Fix New York City<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Professionally, Hernandez made his mark in the biotech and healthcare industries. Over two decades, he built and led more than a dozen companies focused on improving public health, five of which went public. He developed a reputation for solving complex problems, from advancing drug research to managing large teams under pressure.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">That success is now the foundation for his leap into politics. \u201cI\u2019m really trained as a scientist and I built businesses. I\u2019ve built, bought 12 different companies and we bought five of them public,\u201d he says. \u201cMy background is really in business and so the political world is a new one to me. But I feel this is my opportunity to pay back to a society and a city that gave me so much.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Hernandez officially launched his campaign for mayor as an independent, positioning himself as a candidate unbound by political machines. He believes New York City is at a turning point, struggling with crime, housing shortages, and soaring costs of living. \u201cIf you look at New York City, unfortunately it\u2019s an unsafe, dirty city that\u2019s poorly operated, so there\u2019s a lot of room for improvement,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<h2>Bold Policies on Crime, Housing, and Cost of Living<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Public safety tops his agenda. \u201cIt is ridiculous. New York City has become an unsafe place,\u201d Hernandez says. His plan calls for hiring 10,000 new police officers by reallocating overtime funds, reviving grid patrols, and partnering with federal agencies when local prosecutors fail to act. \u201cIf we don\u2019t control crime, the city will continue to spiral out of control.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-21955 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/rcourihay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Screen-Shot-2025-09-12-at-12.48.01-PM-1024x481.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"819\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rcourihay.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Screen-Shot-2025-09-12-at-12.48.01-PM-1024x481.png 1024w, https:\/\/rcourihay.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Screen-Shot-2025-09-12-at-12.48.01-PM-300x141.png 300w, https:\/\/rcourihay.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Screen-Shot-2025-09-12-at-12.48.01-PM-768x361.png 768w, https:\/\/rcourihay.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Screen-Shot-2025-09-12-at-12.48.01-PM-1536x721.png 1536w, https:\/\/rcourihay.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Screen-Shot-2025-09-12-at-12.48.01-PM.png 1734w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Housing affordability is another focus. With the city\u2019s vacancy rate at just 1.4 percent compared to a national average of 6.8, Hernandez argues the crisis is rooted in limited supply. He pledges to convert millions of square feet of unused office space into apartments, unlock 40,000 rent-controlled units sitting idle, and ease regulations to accelerate construction. \u201cNothing works like the free market. You have to let the free markets work\u2014and that means increasing supply.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He also wants to tackle the cost of food by partnering with the Bodega Association to lower prices on essentials by 15 to 20 percent through bulk purchasing. \u201cBy addressing housing and food, that should really have an impact on the cost of living,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Technology is the third pillar of Hernandez\u2019s campaign. His business experience shapes his vision for City Hall. He sees New York as a vast corporation\u2014one that needs better management and innovation. \u201cIf you look at the budget for New York City, it\u2019s astronomical. It\u2019s a $120 billion budget, 300,000 employees. This is a large corporation,\u201d he says. \u201cWe have to create processes and hire the right leadership to execute.\u201d He plans to use artificial intelligence to improve efficiency across city services, from traffic control to budgeting. \u201cTeams make a big difference,\u201d he says. \u201cProcesses, efficiency, and technology are key to any successful business operation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">While critics slam luxury developments for fueling inequality, Hernandez takes a balanced view. \u201cThey are a significant part of our tax base,\u201d he says. \u201cWe need them, and we have to make sure they play fair. That\u2019s the requirement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">At the heart of his campaign is a belief in unity. Hernandez often recalls how New York thrives because of its diversity. \u201cWe need to unify New York City,\u201d he says. \u201cWe\u2019ve become so accustomed to separating people because of religion, faith, race, or ideology. Our commonality is the greatness of New York City and the people that make it so special.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Despite running against big political names, Hernandez is carving out his own lane. Collecting nearly 15,000 petition signatures\u2014four times the requirement\u2014he has already shown he can build momentum without party backing. \u201cI\u2019m not motivated by money. I am not owned by anybody. Nobody owns me. I don\u2019t owe any debts to anybody,\u201d he says. \u201cI\u2019m here to do what\u2019s right for the city, what\u2019s right for the citizens, what\u2019s right for our kids and the future of New York.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">For Hernandez, this campaign is personal. It\u2019s the culmination of a life shaped by sacrifice, ambition, and gratitude for the opportunities his family found in America. \u201cThere are other cities competing to be the best city in the world, and we have to compete,\u201d he says. \u201cThat\u2019s the bottom line. I think I\u2019m the best person to do that for the city.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">With his Cuban roots, academic pedigree, and record of business success, Joseph Hernandez offers voters something rare: a candidate who blends personal grit with visionary leadership. His message is simple but powerful\u2014New York can be better, and he\u2019s ready to make it happen.<\/p>\n<p>Check out more profiles <a href=\"https:\/\/rcourihay.com\/category\/columns\/profiles\/\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joseph Hernandez Is Not Your Typical Politician Story by\u00a0Morning Honey (CA) Joseph Hernandez\u00a0is not your typical politician.
