I earned LEARN Diplomas from Rutgers School of Management and Labor Relations (SMLR), where I am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Labor Studies. With over 10 years of work experience in the labor movement, I have developed strong skills in handling ER issues, conflict resolution, and creative problem solving.I have also represented AFSCME New Jersey on the Joint Council of Affiliated Unions for negotiations with the Administrative Office of the Courts, and served as CWA Local 1032's representative on the CWA New Jersey Organizing Committee, creating and leading trainings with other Staff Representatives on best practices for union representation, new hire orientations, and collective bargaining online. My mission is to promote social and economic justice for workers and their communities, and to advance the values of workplace democracy, solidarity, and equity.I also have a unique background in audio engineering and music theory, which enriches my perspective and enhances my communication skills. I am passionate about organizing, educating, and mobilizing workers to achieve their collective goals and aspirations.
