Candidate Statement

I've been lucky enough to work as an actor since 1990. For most of those years, I took all of this - our rights, our union-won protections — for granted. But l've seen the seismic shift in our industry. Watched it become less viable as a career for many working class actors. While we’ve made some gains, our fight continues. The past 2 years, I’ve been proud to serve on the LA Local Board, on National Committees : TV/Theatrical Principal Performers, Sexual Harrassment, Government Affairs & Public Policy, Honors & Tributes, and on LA Local Committees: Executive,Sexual Harassment, Women’s. Now, I’m ready to keep fighting to protect this industry we all love.

Candidate: National Board, Local Board
