Learn more about the candidates:
Mayor Michael Soriano: Mayor Soriano was a career electrician before running for Mayor, his first run for public office, in 2017. Born on an Army base, Mayor Soriano has served as a foreman and superintendent on numerous construction jobs, including the Freedom Tower. Since becoming Mayor of Parsippany, he has worked to stabilize the township’s long-broken finances, protect our natural environment and open spaces, increase community engagement in local government, and hold the line against overdevelopment.
Cori Herbig is a resident of Lake Hiawatha. With over two decades of government affairs experience, Cori currently works as the Director of State Public Policy at Mars, Inc, focusing primarily on issues of sustainability and animal health and welfare. Prior to joining the Mars team, Cori worked at Everytown for Gun Safety (which includes Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America) for five years, where she worked to pass lifesaving gun violence prevention policies and preserve public safety laws throughout the country. Earlier in her career, she spent 13 years advocating for animal welfare at the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, where she fought at the state and federal levels to keep animals safe from abuse and neglect. Before joining the ASPCA, Cori practiced housing law at Westchester/Putnam Legal Services, where she advocated to keep struggling families safe from unlawful eviction. She grew up in Chester and moved to Lake Hiawatha in 2013, where she now lives with her husband and two children.
Judy Hernandez is a 21-year resident of Parsippany living in Glacier Hills with her husband and two children. Her professional experience is as a civil and environmental engineer and environmental advocate. Judy has worked on projects from the proposal, contract, and planning stages to design and construction. She has also sat on the Open Space Committee. Currently, she serves as Vice Chair on the Parsippany Environmental Advisory Committee, a member of the Parsippany Green Team, and as the Mayor’s designee on the Planning Board. Judy is also involved in her neighborhood association on the civic committee. Her goal is to engage the community and bring attention to pressing issues. Whether the issue is public health, environmental justice, fair-share housing, pollution, water security, development, or economic and impacted ecosystems, Judy believes that all of these issues intersect and must be approached through communication, education, and sharing ideas.
