I was born into both the entertainment industry and union values. My father was a stuntman and proud member of the Screen Actors Guild, while my grandfather served as a Teamster bus driver in Los Angeles. Raised in Santa Clarita, California, union pride and hard work were instilled in me from an early age.

At just twelve years old, I began operating heavy equipment during summers for my family’s business — mastering bulldozers, skip loaders, and backhoes. This hands-on experience became the foundation of my work ethic and problem-solving approach.

Thanks to the mentorship of the Curtis family at Curtis Sand & Gravel, I entered the Teamsters Training Fund and earned my Class A license. That led me to the Sack family at Hollywood Show Lights and Hollywood Fires, where I drove water trucks and tractor trailers — marking my first steps into the motion picture and television transportation business.

In 2000, I secured my 30 days on a union production and officially joined Teamsters Local 399. Over the next 25+ years, I built a career in nearly every role within transportation — from driver to leading full-scale operations alongside transportation coordinators and captains.

My specialized work involved setting up and managing private basecamps for high-profile talent, including overseeing trailers, mobile kitchens, gyms, makeup, wardrobe, security coordination, studio executive visits, and complex logistics — both domestically and abroad.

Through this global experience, I developed a rare combination of field expertise, logistical knowledge, and leadership — always working with pride, discretion, and professionalism.
