As a current WSVMA Board of Director I feel my experience and continued enthusiasm about creating a nimble and responsive association makes me a good candidate for this position.

I have served the association on the Board but also previously served as conference chair for 5 years. I am committed to serving the needs of our members and see successes in helping all veterinarians, animals and animal owners in our state.

I see the WSVMA having three tasks to serving our members:

• Individual member’s needs. I feel as an association we are very good at responding to individual members and attempting to point them in the right direction for solutions to their problems.
• Continued Education. Our association is committed to creating and providing access to quality CE for our members to complete all of their CE requirements.
• Legislative advocacy. This is extremely important and often times out of our control, but/and we attempt to foster relationships with Legislators with the goal to have our voices heard.

If elected I look forward to continuing to serve the Veterinarians in Washington State.
