I was born and raised in Seattle and graduated from Roosevelt High and the University ofWashington but chose Kitsap as the best place to raise a family and practice law. Myfirst job at age 14 was washing dishes at the UW. I moved up to potato peeler at SpudFish and Chips and while in high school landed a job as an apprentice scenery builder atthe Seattle Repertory Theater. This led to a journeyman membership the InternationalAlliance of Theatrical Stage Employees Local #15. Rather than being drafted, I chose toserve in the Navy and was trained as an Electrician and a Salvage Diver. Returning tomy work with Local #15, I also served on the Executive Board and as BusinessRepresentative and President. I decided to use my GI Bill benefits to go to college andlaw school. I graduated from The Northwestern School of Law in 1983. Aftergraduating I continued my work with Local #15 as their President until wife and childrennecessitated me going into practice as a lawyer. My years with the rank and file madeRepresenting workers a natural for me. That was 1991, 30 years ago. I proudly maintainmy journeyman status with the Local and proudly continue to represent injured workers.Helping workers navigate a twisted system while keeping their dignity is what I do best. Iwill continue to stand with and for my working brothers and sisters and am proud to wearmy jeans to work.
