He has experience in a variety of industries, including manufacturing, transportation, retail, hospitality, corrections, utilities, construction, non-profit, health care, and cannabis.  Mr. Crowley directly handles and oversees complex litigation, including both class/collective and individual matters, as well as collective bargaining negotiations, organizing drives, labor arbitrations, internal union governance, trust fund advice and representation, and legislative drafting. 

Mr. Crowley’s first exposure to unions and political activism came through attending as a youth United Farm Workers events and public-school teacher strikes in Southern California. Initially, Mr. Crowley studied physics at the University of California, Berkeley, and the University of Michigan, while spending much of his time as a political activist organizing around demilitarization, military economic conversion, gun regulation, anti-apartheid, Central America liberation struggles, and homelessness issues. Later, while attending law school at the University of California College of the Law San Francisco (f.k.a. Hastings), Mr. Crowley worked for the Homeless Advocacy Project, clerked for various plaintiff-side employment discrimination law firms, and interned with U.S. District Court Judge Thelton Henderson.
