We would like to announce the departure of Andrew Bray from NPMA as he has recently accepted the position of Vice President of Government Affairs with the National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP). Please join me in congratulating Andrew on this new and exciting opportunity as we thank him for his hard work and dedication to our industry over the past three years. Andrew’s last day will be Friday, June 29th.
We would also like to announce that Jake Plevelich has been promoted to Director of Public Policy. Jake has been a stalwart in the Public Policy department leading our SPAR program, implementing our grassroots program, supporting the PAC program, drafting and submitting countless federal and state comments and being an integral, thoughtful and fun member of the Public Policy Department. We know Jake will continue to be a tireless advocate for the industry and we are excited to see him continue to grow professionally.
NPMA has begun a job search as we seek to add a new individual to round out the Public Policy Department ahead of our 2018-19 membership year. We look forward to introducing this new individual to you in the near future.
Please join us again in congratulating Jake and Andrew on their new opportunities and thanking them for their services.
