BROOKLYN'S HISTORIC CANDIDATE
HISTORY IN THE MAKING
Born and raised in Flatbush, Brooklyn,
Elijah Diaz is a proud product of PS 217, Ditmas I.S. 62, and Midwood High School.
Growing up with Type 1 Diabetes, raised by a single mother, Elijah learned resilience and leadership from a young age.
At just 17, he earned an athletic scholarship to Purchase College, studying Journalism and competing in collegiate baseball across New York.
While in college, Elijah discovered a new passion for business. At 19, he became the first entrepreneur in his family — launching a journey that fueled his advocacy for small businesses. Witnessing firsthand the barriers small businesses face, he expanded his expertise into Financial Services, Marketing, Psychology, and ultimately, Politics — determined to create common-sense, fact-based solutions for his community.
Elijah’s candidacy for City Council makes history as the youngest-ever candidate at age 22, and the first challenger to the Democratic Party in Brooklyn’s District 45 — serving Flatbush, East Flatbush, Midwood, Flatlands, and Marine Park.
With his brand, "Leadership of the New Era,"
Elijah inspires a new generation of activists, entrepreneurs, and civic leaders. His campaign is rooted in transparency, action, and real solutions for everyday New Yorkers — especially those facing the same systemic barriers he once fought to overcome.
Elijah Diaz is not just running for office — he's building a movement. One that gives power back to the people.
