EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR'S BLOG

APPRECIATIONS

A month back from medical leave, I want to express my appreciation for my wonderful two staff members, Operations Manager Kristina Jasmin and Membership and Communications Coordinator Nadir Carlson for not only doing great work with their regular work responsibilities but also picking up many of my regular work duties during this time. I am also grateful for our two interns, Francesca Ipsaro and Hailey Connors who helped implement our 2025 Advocacy Day without an Executive Director or a third intern. They did great with this event! I am also extremely grateful for our Continuing Education Chair, Joan Groessl, who along with Kristina almost entirely completed the 2025 annual conference workshop slots during my absence.
