Member Spotlight
 

As the membership and volunteer engagement specialist at the Association of Consulting Engineering Companies - Ontario (ACEC-Ontario), I help our members connect with their peers and industry partners through our committees, chapters and networks.

CSAE has been a valuable resource over the years and has become our go-to community when we are looking for new tools, resources and perspectives. I am fortunate to have the opportunity to make positive change in the association sector by serving as a co-chair for CSAE’s Diversity and Inclusion Committee. After nearly two years of studying in the Certified Association Executive® program, I recently received my CAE® designation. I am very grateful to CSAE for enabling my personal and professional growth over the last few years!
