MINITA SANGHVI
FOR NEW YORK STATE SENATE
“We need a leader who will put people ahead of partisan politics and focus on solutions. I’m not a career politician. On the city council, I’ve built a record of listening to people and working with others to deliver results that improve our community. I'm running for State Senate to create economic opportunity, protect our freedoms, invest in our district and get the results we need.”
MINITA’S STORY
A parent, educator, and fiscally responsible public servant, Minita Sanghvi is a problem solver who focuses on results, not partisan politics.
Born to a conservative family of entrepreneurs and innovators in India, Minita was taught by her parents to work hard, stand up for others, and serve her community. After earning a degree in accounting and an MBA, and working in advertising, Minita immigrated to the United States in 2001 because America offered her the opportunity to be herself and pursue her dream of getting married and raising a family.
After working as an Assistant Manager at WalMart, in corporate marketing, and starting her own business, Minita found her passion in educating college students and has been teaching business at Skidmore College for nearly ten years.
While raising a young son with her wife, Megan, Minita earned the trust of her neighbors in 2021 and was elected to serve as the Saratoga Springs Finance Commissioner and has been called the “voice of reason” on the council for her problem-solving, fiscally responsible approach.
