I am honored to announce that I am running for re-election as your Local Council 12 President. Serving as your President has been one of the greatest privileges of my 30+ year career with United Airlines (1993). These past years have deepened my understanding of our members’ needs and reaffirmed my commitment to advocate fiercely for fair flying, safe workplaces, and respect for every Flight Attendant.
I’ve learned that leadership means listening—and acting. Together, we have built stronger communication, faster grievance resolution, and greater unity across our base. I want to continue that progress, ensuring our Council remains transparent, responsive, and ready to meet every challenge ahead.
As Helen Keller once said, “Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.”
That’s what leadership means to me – and why I’m asking for your continued trust and support. Together, we’ll keep Council 12 strong, informed, and united.
