“I am honored to be considered for the role of President Elect.  Over the past year I have become more involved in the local ASID design community through monthly meetings, events and my current position on the board.

We have an amazing opportunity to continue strengthening member connections through conversations, support of others creativity, desire to learn, grow and thrive personally and professionally.  As President Elect I hope to be a resource and voice for existing, new and potential members of the ASID AZ South Chapter.”

“Over the past several years, my involvement with ASID AZ South has been both meaningful and energizing. The opportunity to connect with fellow design professionals has expanded my understanding of the industry and strengthened my commitment to our local design community. The relationships I’ve built and the knowledge I’ve gained have been invaluable, and they’ve inspired me to take a more active role in supporting and elevating our chapter.

I am eager to contribute to the board by bringing a positive attitude, genuine passion for design, and strong communication skills. I believe in the power of community, collaboration, and shared purpose, and I’m committed to encouraging others to engage with ASID and experience the same sense of connection and growth that I have. I would be honored to support the continued success of our design community by joining the board.”

“Having previously served as Chapter President, I understand both the responsibility and the value of strong leadership within ASID. I am offering my service for the upcoming slate because I care deeply about the continued success and stability of our chapter, and I want to help ensure the board remains fully supported during this transition period.

My interest in serving at this time is rooted in a commitment to stewardship. ASID has provided me meaningful opportunities for professional growth, connection, and advocacy within our design community, and I believe in giving back where I can. If there is a need for experienced leadership while the chapter identifies the right long-term candidate, I am happy to step in and assist.

I strongly believe the future of our chapter depends on engaging younger, active members who will bring fresh energy, innovative ideas, and new perspectives to leadership. My goal would be to help bridge that transition successfully – supporting the board now while encouraging and preparing the next generation of leaders to step forward.”
