Member Spotlight

Local 741 Brothers & Sisters

Please welcome one of our newest members Christian. He has a very inspiring story. I was at our San Leandro school and met Christian who was a student in the pre-apprenticeship program and was working towards getting all his certifications but still needed to find a sponsor for employment and to join the union. Christian was ready for an opportunity to be successful, have a career, further his education and mostly to provide for his family. The past wasn’t always perfect which ended with him doing some time in prison but with a fresh outlook on life, focus, and commitment he worked hard to stick to his goals of being a provider and contributing member of society which led him to our pre-apprenticeship program.  After meeting Christian and talking for a few short minutes I knew right away that I needed to do anything I could to help him so we hooked him up with Murphy Industrial Coatings. Now he is working and is getting the job done working hard and proving that you can make a new life with in the union as a respected member because he is letting his hard work do the talking! 

Local 741 is proud to help change people lives for the better and watch our apprentices grow and become a valuable member of our brotherhood. 

Christian, welcome to our family we are excited to see your successes!
