Former FL newspaper reporter now communications director for @NationalNurses @CalNurses in Oakland, CA. Love Krispy Kreme donuts, Schitt’s Creek, son, husband.
ICE is Trump's paramilitary force inflicting terror on our community and murdering people in front of their children. This goes against everything nurses stand for. An institution that is invested in killing cannot be reformed.
Nurses say: #AbolishICE
Locking up unhoused people is not just wrong, it's an abuse of taxpayer dollars.
Imagine if we used that money instead to create a future centered around nurse values — a society that prioritized affordable housing, free health care, and other support systems.
Nurses stand in solidarity with newsroom writers across the country who are on strike today, like our friends at @CTGuild and @OS_Guild! 📰
Here are all the publications on strike — stand strong and support these journalists! ✊
Thunderstorm in Wichita? ☔️
No problem, we'll keep fighting for our patients — we'll just adjust our chants a bit!
📢 If nurses are outside in the rain, there's something wrong inside, @Ascensionorg! 📢 #RNStrike
Every day we come to work and face unsafe staffing levels that put our patients at risk. But we won’t stand for it.
Nurses have the answers, but management refuses to listen.
Maybe today's strike line will finally get @Ascensionorg’s attention! 👀
If you’re not at the #PLASummit23 listening to @heyadiana, @paostrology, @SatansJacuzzi & @mel_buer speak on this moment we’re in at the intersection of media & the labor movement wtfya
We must have #PaidLeave so that we can take the time to bond with a new child, care for a seriously ill loved one, or seek care when we ourselves are sick.
Nurses stand with @POTUS in his call to Congress to pass comprehensive paid family and medical leave legislation! #SOTU
The refusal of @OSHA_DOL to issue a national, permanent, enforceable standard requiring employers to protect workers in health care settings is an extremely dangerous breach of its duties.
An injury to one of us is an injury to all of us!
Nurses know the toll being short staffed can take on our colleagues and our patients. Today we stand with our engineer colleagues at @kpthrive who are on #strike for a safe and just workplace.✊
Nurses and health care workers are at high risk for Covid-19 exposure. We provide hands-on care, up close and personal with patients.
@CDCDirector: @CDCgov MUST do the right thing. Include health care workers in final recommendations for booster shots!

OR hear me out: we could pass Medicare for All, guarantee health care to everyone as a human right, and ensure that 7-year-olds don’t have to worry about how they’ll pay for brain surgery.
