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.

The Section would like to extend a special thanks to all of the partnering organizations that have joined in to make the organization an invaluable resource for information, tools, and support for the population we serve.
