I am the Eastern Region Director, and have been working in the labor movement for over 20 years. 

My Story

I am currently Local 600’s Eastern Region Director and have over 20 years of experience in the labor movement representing union members. My goal is for Local 600 members and staff to work together to win for all members. 

Your National Executive Director, other Region Directors and I are required to represent Local 600 at the IATSE quadrennial convention and the IATSE district conventions. To ensure that we can effectively represent the membership we need to be elected as delegates. 

As Local 600’s team of Directors, during the 2024 Basic Negotiations we advocated for many improvements for members working in every genre, including those working in unscripted, and our publicists. The contract campaign included a robust communications and member outreach program, including our first member to member Contract Action Team (CAT). Contract enforcement and organizing are also a priority. Last year we settled over $3.8 million in claims and grievances for members, helped organize 121 non-union productions and organized a news broadcast station. With the current work slowdown, advocating for more industry work for our members in every region is a top priority. We are committed to enforcement, organizing, and engagement at all levels of our union.  This commitment and track record of success is what we’ll take with us to the IATSE conventions, representing our members and advocating for 600 in every way possible.
