Summary

I am a U.S. Army veteran, journeyman sheet metal worker, and graduate of the prestigious SMART Heroes program, with a proven track record at Holmberg Mechanical and active membership in Local 66. My career has been built on strong communication skills, the ability to unite diverse groups, and a deep commitment to advancing union values. I bring experience in member engagement, contractor relations, and mentorship, ensuring productive and respectful collaboration in all settings. Outside the trades, I compete in the Formula Drift Prospec series, where I manage sponsorships, logistics, and public relations—skills that translate directly into representing the union with professionalism and impact. Whether advocating for members, fostering partnerships, or promoting the values of our trade, I lead with discipline, teamwork, and strategic focus.
