Director of Membership

I am writing to express my sincere interest and submit my candidacy for the position of EMRA Director of Membership. I’ve always believed in the motto “leave something better than the way you inherited it.” This is why I want to run for the position of EMRA Director of Membership. I have benefited personally and professionally from all that EMRA has to offer and I want to work hard to make that possible for future generations of residents.

As Director of Membership I will work hard to increase membership size and most importantly strengthen the value of membership. I will make it a priority to ensure that the value of EMRA extends from medical students to graduates, as well as residents in between. I am eager to listen to the voice of EMRA members and build upon the growing needs of the emergency medicine champions of tomorrow. I believe my experience as EMRA Education Committee Vice Chair makes me a natural fit for this new leadership position and has provided me with a
strong background to be an advocate for EMRA Members.
