It is my honor and my pleasure to introduce myself as the new President of the Sacramento-Sierra Chapter of the Appraisal Institute. I have been involved in the appraisal profession since 2006 and have had the pleasure of working with several outstanding professionals in my 13-year career. Additionally, I have served in the Appraisal Institute as Secretary-Treasurer and Vice President, attended several Regional meetings, as well as the Leadership Development and Advisory Council (LDAC) in Washington D.C., all of which have been very influential on my perception of the goals and needs of our profession and local chapter.
 
Over the coming year, I will work diligently on your behalf to protect the needs of our members. Certainly there are big issues ahead of us, including a potential merger with the Northern California Chapter, and I will do my best to make sure that our members’ voices are well represented in this dynamic environment. I welcome any and all input in this potential transitional period of our Chapter.
 
I look forward to serving as your President over the coming year. Please always feel free to reach out to me with any topics that come to mind!
