Mike transferred to the East Brunswick Post Office as
a letter carrier in 1982 after spending nine years as a clerk in the NJI & BMC in Jersey City. Shortly
after his move to East Brunswick, Mike became involved in the NALC and was appointed to the position of alternate shop steward.
He was soon elected as shop steward and became involved in many of the activities of Branch 38.
Mike has served the members of Branch 38 in
many capacities over the years including arbitration advocate, EI Steering Committee member, and LISTEN Coordinator.
He was appointed to the committee tasked with developing the UMP grievance procedure for the Central NJ District and
served as one of the original team members for that process. Mike was also appointed by National President
Vince Sombrotto to serve on the NALC Task Force to explore the concept of an evaluated route structure.
Mike held the position of part-time area representative
for many years before being appointed, and eventually elected, to a full-time position. He has held four
elected offices with Branch 38: Full-Time Area Representative, Director of City Delivery, Second Vice President,
and First Vice President.
Mike will forever be grateful to the members of Branch 38 for the trust they have shown in
him. He considers it a tremendous honor to be able to serve the letter carriers in Branch 38.
Mike lives in East Brunswick with his wife Elizabeth. They have three grown children Kevin, Tim,
and Megan.
