Platform
Statement:
-
Highlight your previous involvement within this unit that will
help you in leading this unit. What roles have you played within
this particular unit as a member thus far?
I
have been involved in this commission for 2 years, and I would
like to do what I can to see it grow.
-
What do you believe are the most important goals and initiatives
for this unit in meeting the strategic plan for both the unit
and the Association?
Being a relatively young commission, I believe the most important
goal for the Advising Education Majors Commission is to continue
to identify the critical issues faced by advisors who work with
education students. Once these issues have been identified, the
commission can begin to address the needs and interests of its
members.
- Why are
you interested in serving in this leadership position or what
influenced you to run for this leadership position?
I see leadership as service. I would like to use my skills and
talents to serve the commission and NACADA in a greater way than
I am currently. I see this as the perfect way to accomplish this
goal.
-
Provide any additional comments or information (either personal
or leadership-related) that you want potential voters to know
about you that is not covered elsewhere in your platform information.
