Why I would like to continue to be a member of the Board of Directors and my vision for UTA:

I would like to continue serving on the UTA Board of Directors. I’m confident that my professional experience working with trustee companies, my unique concentration on legal and regulatory compliance, and my continued attendance and participation at various industry events enables me to serve as a valuable asset to the board. In a highly-regulated industry like ours, trade groups play an increasingly important role. This is especially true during an ongoing pandemic that has directly impacted our day-to-day operations. I am proficient on the many laws, regulations, and issues that our members encounter on a daily basis. I continue to work closely with our Legislative Committee to assist in drafting new legislation and working to oppose problematic bills. The UTA does a great job of providing its members with continuing education, ongoing advocacy efforts, and best practice initiatives. If reelected to the Board, I will continue to refine and build-out these core pillars of our association for the betterment of our members and the industry as a whole. I will continue to work on upping our educational resources and opportunities for members to learn and engage in valuable discussions regarding the implementation and impact of new laws and regulations. I will work toward the advancement of our group while maintaining the vision, mission and goals of our association. Thank you for your consideration and participation in the voting process.
