ABOUT ME
Service has always shaped my path
From military service to the aircraft cabin, I have always stepped forward to help others.
MEET DANNY
A FLIGHT ATTENDANT, VETERAN, AND LABOR LEADER
I have been a Flight Attendant with JetBlue since 2019. Prior to JetBlue I served in the US Army, including active duty service with an overseas deployment, followed by serving in the Florida Army National Guard.
That experience has taught me that we are strongest when expectations are clear, people trust each other, and leaders remain accountable.
My Union involvement grew from a simple belief: every Member should understand & exercise their rights and feel confident doing so.
I have served our Members as an elected Shop Steward, currently in my second term. Over the years, I have also been honored to serve through several committee appointments. I previously served on the Communications and Education Committee and currently serve on the Committee on Political Education (COPE) and the Grievance Committee
Outside of service to our Local, I have been elected to serve a two year term as Co-Chair of the TWU Florida State Conference.
I also helped organize Brightline workers in Florida, who voted to join the TWU. Brightline workers were the largest group of railroad workers to unionize in over 20 years.
When I'm not flying or doing Union work, I am a proud cat dad to my sphynx cats. They keep life interesting and remind me to slow down and enjoy the moment.
This campaign is the next chapter of a lifetime service. I would be honored to earn your trust, support, and vote for Member-At-Large.
A Record of Stepping Up
MILITARY SERVICE
United States Army & Florida National Guard
My commitment to service began long before I became a Flight Attendant. I proudly served in the US Army and Florida National Guard from 2015 through 2021. During my service I learned the importance of discipline, preparation, accountability, and teamwork; all values that continue to shape the type of leader I am today.
Serving in the military reinforced that strong teams succeed when everyone understands their role, communicates effectively, and remains committed.

ON THE LINE
JetBlue Flight Attendant
I joined JetBlue as a Flight Attendant and have been working alongside you since 2019. Every flight requires teamwork, adaptability, professionalism, and the ability to make decisions under pressure.
Throughout my career I've been Based in BOS, JFK, and FLL; giving me firsthand insight of unique challenges that our Members face across multiple Bases.
Even while serving in various roles within our Union, I have continued to fly the line and understand the firsthand experiences we face everyday.

UNION LEADERSHIP
Member Representation & Committees
Over the years, I have been honored to serve in several capacities within our Local; including as a Shop Steward in both JFK and FLL, Education Committee Member, Communications Chair, and currently serve on the Committee on Political Education (COPE) and on our Grievance Committee.
Each role has provided me opportunities to learn, educate, and help enforce the protections in our CBA. Whether answering questions, assisting with grievances, or representing Members in meetings, my focus has always remained the same. Serving our Members with professionalism, integrity, and accountability is my honor.

ORGANIZING AND ADVOCACY
Building Worker Power Beyond Our Workplace
Strong Unions are built through education, engagement, and solidarity. My involvement in the labor movement has extended beyond just our Local.
I have worked on organizing new workers into the labor movement, advocated on legislation, and have remained engaged with elected officials.
These relationships I have built with leaders across the State of Florida and in Washington, D.C. reinforces that strong leaders should lead from the front. These experiences have reinforced that change can be made when workers organize, participate, and make their voices heard.
Collaboration can create lasting improvements for working people.

LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
TWU International Internship Program
In 2026, I was honored to be selected for the TWU International Internship Program at the TWU International headquarters in Washington, D.C. This is an opportunity awarded to a small group of emerging TWU labor leaders from across the country.
During my internship I worked alongside TWU International staff and Local Union leaders on pushing our legislative priorities, strategic planning, and Member engagement. This was an invaluable insight into how our International supports our Local Unions, and how we all work together to support Members.
This experience reinforced my belief that leadership requires continuous learning, collaboration and a willingness to step out of your comfort zone. I have a deeper appreciation for the importance to educate, transparently communicate, and empower Members to become more active.
