About Me

I am Michael Crook.  As I have for over a decade, I proudly reside in Albany, New York.  I am active in both my church and community.  I consider Albany to be the best place to live, work and worship.

My wife, cats and I enjoy Albany and we take full advantage of what the finest city in our nation has to offer.

After a career in broadcast engineering as well as retail management, I ran my own successful business before selling it to concentrate on other projects.

I am not shy, nor am I afraid to speak up, even if that makes waves or offends anyone.  I know what to do to get what is wanted or needed.

Oh, yes, there’s one small thing: I am running for the office of mayor of Albany. 

I am neither Republican nor Democrat, and I don’t typically discuss specific politicians, but I will say that, in the wee hours of November 6, 2024, YMCA suddenly took over as my ringtone.  I fully endorse and support our 47th president in all that he has done and will do as one of our country’s finest presidents.
