Organizer

Nov 2016 - Jul 2021
I organized over 700 new workers into the union; led roughly 250 workers on strike in two hotels during Chicago’s first city-wide hotel strike in 2018; and represented the union in labor-management meetings with high-level hotel representatives regarding several issues including working conditions, hotel policies, and grievances. Before leaving this position, I first-chaired negotiations with a nursing home facility in which I secured significant raises and cheaper but higher quality insurance for 100 workers.
