This is the latest installment of the NACCU series highlighting our association volunteers. NACCU provides programs and services to our members, many which would not be possible without the dedication and commitment of our volunteer leaders. Volunteers, whether they are a committee member, a Board member, or an onsite volunteer at a conference, are all important in making NACCU volunteer-driven programs an exceptional experience for our card industry peers.

What is your favo(u)rite memory from when you were a student?

I have a master's degree in Chemistry, and before working in IT, I was an environmentalist and did research on indoor air pollution.
