Christian Telesmar

Candidate: Local Board, Convention Delegate

Candidate Statement

I am excited to run for my second term for LA Local Board and Convention Delegate. With a decade of union membership, I am passionate about diversity, equity, and inclusion in the arts. Experience on the Orientation Subcommittee and as Vice-Chair of the LA Strike Preparedness Committee has given me valuable insights into union governance. As a business owner with an MFA and an MBA, I offer a fresh perspective on technology, innovation and performer labor leadership. If elected, I will fight for better communication, compensation, and representation for all.
