Position Statement
I am honored to have been nominated as Chair-Elect of the Rochester Section in 2010. It is my hope to use 2011 as a year of learning, both in leadership skills and for identifying opportunities that we might address in our section. I believe that we can build stronger and more synergistic relations with several associated groups and area institutions. I consider myself fortunate to be Chair- Elect during the planning year for Northeast Regional Meeting (NERM) and Chair in 2012 when we host NERM.
