1. Why do you want to serve as a trustee?
I feel that one of my greater purposes is to help impact others and encourage them to broaden their horizons and expand their options in life. Serving on the board as Present- Elect will allow me to advocate for the field of neurodiagnostics and help empower and educate those who are currently working or perusing the field. I will be able to bring new ideas and be directly involved in an organization that supports my core principles. I share the same values as ASET, being respect, integrity, excellence, and responsibility. I feel that being a board member I will always be able to demonstrate and positively reflect what ASET stands for, while also bringing awareness to the field. I enjoy dedicating my time to what I feel is important and uplifting other to do the same.2. How would you define your role as trustee in the context of the current Board job descriptions?
The role of a Trustee/ President- Elect is to be the governing body ASET. To set forth and stand by the bylaws that are put in place. The Board is there to be the voice for the members, listen to the member’s desires and do their best to support them and make their visions become reality. The board is to stand together as a unit, even if all members don’t agree on a decision. One board, one sound, one voice. As a Board member, we should act with good faith and always keep the best interest of the organization and the members in mind. Board members should be upheld to a higher standard and be able to lead and teach. Attend meetings regularly and always be prepared to give their input when appropriate. Lastly, the Boards role is to make sure they always have enough information and resources.
As President- elect you learn how to ensure this practice is always happening.3. What are the unique skills you possess that would benefit you in your tenure as a BOT member? How did you develop those skills?
I have spent a lot of my time as a volunteer firefighter. Through my tenure, I was a fire officer for 5 years of which 3 years were served as a captain. In this role I managed 40-45 other firefighters, with a focus of safety, mentoring, educating, skill building and the management and allocation of funds. I have also served on different committees within the fire department where I held various board positions, such as company delegate, vice president and much more. I am well rounded in the functions of being able to work on a team and knowing how to stay informed of all matters in which affect ASET and the neurdiagnostic field. As a leader, I understand that I won’t know everything, and I have the ability to learn quickly and question things in which I don’t understand.
4. What qualities do you feel are important for a BOT member to possess? What experiences have helped you to develop these qualities?
In order to be a successful board member and leader, you have to maintain an ethical and responsible manner. Aristotle once said, “Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all”. This speaks to me because I have always been a person whose integrity speaks for itself. Everything that I do is with a clear heart and mind. I am an open minded individual. Which means that I stand by what I believe but never keep tunnel vision to not be able to see the views of others. With an open mind, comes compassion. I am a compassionate individual, especially in the health field. Having compassion is necessary for adequate patient care and for employees. You should always be able to understand and relate. I have a willingness about me, always ready to perform the duty that is asked of me
5. ASET is actively working to promote increased membership benefits, advocacy, and offer multiple educational opportunities. What other important STRATEGIC goals would you have for ASET if elected?
I want to be able to always keep the members need a priority, while also working hard to expand and promote ASET as a whole. I want to be able to continue to build positive connections between ASET and other health organizations. A lot of those working in the field aren’t aware of the benefits of being an ASET member, as well as many employers. My goal is to bring awareness and continuously be an advocate for the organization. The neurodiagnostic field is expanding and I want to educate people on the various opportunities that are available and help with expansion of the ASET membership. I would like to promote continuous education and be able to provide the resources that are needed in order to do so. With continuous education, members can perfect their skills and techniques while experiencing the new and changing within their sector of neurodiagnostics. -
