National Board Candidate Statement

After over a decade in service, multiple negotiations, and committee chairpersonships, I see our union on the verge of finally embracing its true strength. Better residuals, stronger protections, access to benefits; you’ve heard that all before, but I think we can make real progress under the leadership of Sean Astin. We can build upon the unity of purpose that we showed during the TV/Theatrical and Video Game strikes. I ask that you elect him and allow me to work beside him on the national board to continue this forward trend. (see local statement for more).

Los Angeles Local Board Candidate Statement

I've been a working actor for almost 40 years. I know from personal experience as a two-time cancer survivor how important our health benefits are and how hard they are to earn. During 10 major negotiations I've fought to improve our contracts, protect our plans, increase residuals, and make benefits accessible for all. As chair of the National Background Actors Committee, I fight hard for BG issues. We need contracts that support everyone and leaders who'll work for you. I respectfully ask for your vote for another term on the LA Local Board.
