District VI memories

Recently, SWATA announced the election results, and welcomed Chris Hall as the new district director.  We also saw Valerie Hairston named to her second term as the Member-At-Large, and Lorna Strong as the Eddie Wojeki recipient.  What an awesome group of candidates and award winners!
I had the pleasure of working as a student under Chris Hall at TCU.  He has such a passion for the profession, and his love for the work we do truly shows.  Texas and Arkansas have been able to do so many things on both the state and local level, and I look forward to everything that we will do in the future. 

As we creep towards the July meeting, I wanted to take some time to reflect on all the work Kathy Dieringer has done as the District VI director.  During the 2014 convention, Kathy asked the Young Professionals’ Committee to tackle the NPI contest.  The YP’s teamed up with the PR, CUATC, and COPA committees to increase both awareness and on-site NPI registrations.  As committee chair, I was thankful for Kathy reaching out and trusting me with this initiative.  I know there are many stories out there just like mine- District VI what are some of your memories of working alongside Kathy?
