MINITA SANGHVI

FOR NEW YORK STATE SENATE

“We need a leader who will put people ahead of partisan politics in Albany and focus on solutions.  I’m not a politician.  I’m a parent, business educator, and fiscally responsible public servant, and I’ve built a record of listening to people and working with others to deliver results that improve quality of life while keeping spending down.”

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.
