  • Welcome our new Chapter President, Emily Mendez-Bryant!

    I am so honored and humbled to serve as your 2024 President, alongside a wonderful board of 16 dedicated individuals. We are all excited to continue the great work this chapter has been doing, and to keep the momentum going. 
     

    Important to me for this Year of the Dragon (2024) is to: 

    --Bring energy and aloha 

    --Have fun and engaging ways to recognize our members and our work

    --Grow our membership and increase opportunities, esp. in IDEA

    --And, continue to help and support one another!!! We are stronger together. 

    So, let’s unleash our collective power by adventuring together, do new things, and make this year one of the best yet for ourselves, profession and community! *Photo taken at Mount Rainier on New Year’s Day; first time I’ve ever been snowshoeing.
