Board MemberI rejoined the Kiwanis in 2015 and served as Club Treasurer for seven years until the 22/23 year. I am currently a member of the BOD.
I like working on club projects and enjoy interacting with other members at meetings. It’s rewarding to be part of an organization that makes positive contributions to the community it serves.

Board MemberI joined Kiwanis when Joe Lewis invited me after I gave a talk to the club. So, I joined out of friendship, stayed because I loved the company, and have become more deeply committed to the mission of helping kids locally and throughout the world. Just lately, I've become aware of the Kiwanis pediatric medical research fellowships that have led to breakthrough therapies saving countless lives. My respect for this organization grows daily.
