What do you want to accomplish

I hope to use my clinical, management and previous MDA board experience to act as President-Elect for MDA during this exciting time for nutrition professionals. Continuing to engage members and create active participation among members will be a primary goal. The strategic plan currently in place will provide the guidance needed to help MDA members grow professionally and MDA as an organization. I look forward to the opportunity to work with the existing Board Members and Committees to continue to strengthen the organization and promote nutrition professionals throughout the state.
