Welcome to Our New President!

       

Greetings everyone!

I’m Tom Spitz, your new ASMP Tucson Chapter president.

I am honored to have been asked to take on the leadership of our local ASMP Chapter and want to extend a thank you to our immediate past president Jennifer Polixenni-Brankin for her years of service.

 I see this as our ASMP chapter-why?-well, because it is.

We are lucky to have an amazing group of dedicated people on our board, all of whom are energetic and full of ideas, but we need everyone’s involvement to make our chapter the best it can be. That means more than just paying your dues and showing up at events, but also speaking up and having your say. My “door” will always be open to suggestions, criticisms, and ideas. In my opinion, the more ideas, the better.

We have some events planned for this year, mostly around ASMP’s core values of education, support, networking and community, but we still have some open slots, so please let me know what you want from our chapter.

I look forward to serving our chapter, and I hope you will step up and get involved, too.

Let’s move forward!

Tom
