I am writing to express my interest in the position of Vice President of the North Carolina Athletic Trainer's Association (NCATA). With a deep commitment to advancing the field of athletic training and a proven track record of leadership within the NCATA, I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to our association's continued growth and success as part of its Executive Board.

​

My journey with the NCATA began with my role as a member of its Public Relations Committee. In 2016 I had the privilege to begin serving as the Co-Chair of the NCATA Public Relations Committee. In this capacity, I worked diligently to enhance the visibility and reputation of our association through strategic communication initiatives, including organizing events that highlight the vital role of athletic trainers in our community. These experiences strengthened my leadership abilities but also deepened my passion for promoting the profession of athletic training.

From March 2020 – March 2024, I served as Secretary for the NCATA where I honed my organizational and communication skills, ensuring that our meetings were efficiently documented, and our members were well-informed. This experience provided me with a comprehensive understanding of the inner workings of our association and the importance of clear, effective communication.

​

As I seek the role of Vice President, I am driven by a desire to build on the solid foundation laid by our current and past leaders. I am committed to fostering a collaborative environment where innovative ideas can flourish, and where the voices of all members are heard and valued. My vision for the NCATA includes expanding our outreach efforts, enhancing professional development opportunities, and advocating for policies that support the growth and recognition of athletic trainers across North Carolina.

I am excited about the possibility of rejoining the Executive Board and contributing to the strategic direction of our association. I am confident that my experience, dedication, and passion for athletic training make me a strong candidate for the position of Vice President. I look forward to the opportunity to contribute to the NCATA's mission and goals.
