PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE



As we close out 2025, I want to express my gratitude to each of you—our designers, partners, students, educators, and friends—for the energy and dedication you bring to our chapter.

This year was filled with standout moments: inspiring CEUs, showroom tours, roadshows, networking events, and our memorable ANDYZ Awards during ASID’s 50th anniversary. We strengthened connections across California and Nevada, deepened sponsor partnerships, and supported growth at every level.

Most of all, we showed up for one another. Your collaboration, mentorship, and support are what make our community so strong.

We’re excited for 2026, with new CEUs, regional gatherings, and fresh initiatives coming your way. More details are ahead in January.

Wishing you a restful, joyful holiday season—and heartfelt thanks for making 2025 truly remarkable.
