The Council has been valuable to me on many levels. I enjoy the camaraderie that’s developed among the council members...great colleagues willing to share their expertise both at meetings and outside. I’ve also enjoyed and benefited from the continued professional development. It’s nice to be a part of a group that has a commitment to continuous learning and the clout to be able to learn from the best.
