I am an experienced 38-year Flight Attendant and 22-year Union Leader looking to further contribute to the success of our Union through hard work, attention to detail, and excellent organizational and leadership skills understanding the priority of working on behalf of all the Hawaiian Airlines Flight Attendants with balancing productive working relationships.
My vision and commitment are to building a strong organization that is professional, well thought of and respected with a united, cohesive leadership team for our future.

Doing Union work wasn't what I expected when I became a flight attendant and had no experience nor did I know what I was getting into but was up to the challenge. At the time, about 30 years ago, I was asked to help with grievances and have been involved in Union work ever since, from LEC Grievance, LEC V P, MEC Grievance Chair to MEC V P.
Hired 36 years ago I've seen a lot of changes in the airline industry, but our Union at Hawaiian Airlines has always been a trend setter for forward, and sometimes out of the box thinking that has led us to have one of the best contracts in the industry, and we intend to keep it that way!
