Platform Statement:

As a seven-year NACADA member, I have experienced first hand the impact of our organization and the resources and support it provides for advising professionals. I welcome the honor and opportunity to continue to serve NACADA as chair of Region V.

As chair, I would continue the work of my predecessors in providing support to the state and allied organizations and encouraging the development of further allied NACADA organizations. I would like to work to encourage more faculty involvement in NACADA throughout the region. And, I would like to increase involvement in regional and affiliate conferences and NACADA leadership positions.
