Why Are You Running For This Position?
I am running for this position because I feel that I have great energy to give to the Vestibular SIG. I am resourceful, trustworthy, and good at multi-tasking. I feel that this position would be a great fit for me because I enjoy motivating others. Mostly recently, I have enjoyed getting friends to join me in my next triathlon, colleagues to go back to shcool for their DPT, and co-workers to become more involved in the APTA. I would look forward to helping move this dynamic SIG forward by encouraging new and talented people to participate. Thank you for considering me for this position.
