Short Biography My name is Helmi Charif and Im 50 years old. Together with my wife Kim Charif, we have three beautiful children: Ali 21, Mona 15 and Jason 10. We met at the American University of Beirut where she majored in Computer Engineering and where I was studying political science. We immigrated to this great country, Canada, in 1991 where she completed her Master degree in Computer Engineering, and I completed my Diploma in Automotive Engineering Technology. We have resided in Windsor ever since. I was born and raised in a political household where my father and my grandfather before him served as mayors of our hometown. Naturally, I inherited their love, passion and commitment to public service. Its something in my blood. As a small business owner, I am part of the fabric of Windsors local economy. I know that public dollars should support local businesses to create good jobs in Windsor. I worked in the automotive sector since 1995 and I know first-hand that Windsors auto and manufacturing industry needs smart investment to keep our jobs in Windsor. I am also a member of the Society of Automotive Engineers. I devote my personal time to building a stronger community. I volunteer with my wife, Kim, to help new Canadians. I am fluent in English, French and Arabic and I am looking forward to meeting you.
