Dear MASEA Member,

My first MASEA conference was in Champaign, IL in 2016. I debuted myself to MASEA by singing "I will survive" on karaoke. After my performance, David Reseigh went up to the mic and said, "Future MASEA president everyone!" I was quick to say no because being president sounded like a huge undertaking. However, a couple months later, I was on the phone speaking to then president, Eric Wordlow, about the position. Taking on the president's role was exciting and nerve-wracking. This was a big step for my professional career, but I'm so glad that I've done it! I'm excited for the upcoming year because there are so many things the board and I would like to accomplish this year to make your membership even more valuable. We will be rolling out a five-year strategic plan and creating a membership engagement committee.
