Welcome to FRIENDS OF DONOVAN SAADIQ!  A bit about me.  I am a former USAF Flight Officer and a Civilian Airport Operations Manager.  I previously ran for Moreno Valley City Council District 5 in 2014 in a Recall Election that was successful in removing the incumbent.  Since that election I have stayed active in city politics and am currently helping my district and community by working on the water problem that has stifled my neighborhood from developing.  I am an original resident  of Moreno Valley having lived and still living in Edgemont from the time I was 7 years old.  Upon graduation from high school I was lucky enough to be stationed right back at March AFB to where I started my military career as a KC-10A aircraft mechanic.  I have served in every military operation from Desert Shield/Storm to Afghanistan. 

While in the military I was blessed enough to educate myself and received various degrees from various colleges;

Education for me is a lifelong pursuit as I am trying to finish my Master's degree from Ft. Hays State University in "Health Science". to which I am 1 year away.  I am one of those people that likes to learn about everything!  Doesn't make me an expert but its never a negative for anybody who wants to learn something they never knew and better themselves.
