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

I would like to be a member of the Board of Directors so that I can contribute my 15+ years of experience in this industry and my 21+ years of litigation experience to the UTA. I believe in helping others in the industry perform at their highest potential by sharing knowledge and best practices. I have always admired how the UTA and the ATA fight for this industry and our clients through lobbying efforts and amicus briefs.  My 10 years on the ATA’s legislative committee and my litigation experience can help serve this purpose. I would like to see the UTA gain a more diverse membership by encouraging membership and participation from industry colleagues in all of our states. Mostly, I look forward to reconnecting with everyone that I have met over the past 10 years at conferences and UTA events.
