I am a trustee of the Arlington Heights Memorial Library. The purpose of this page is to share my thoughts on issues and policy for AHML.
As a resident of Arlington Heights for 25 years, my family and I have been able to experience and enjoy the benefits of one of our areas greatest resources, the AHML. Whether it was through participation in children’s classes, summer reading programs or use of the more traditional lending services for books, music and movies our family has relied on AHML for school, research and leisure.
AHML is a very diverse and rich resource to our community. From classes to meeting space, newsletters to story time the AHML brings our community together to share knowledge and experiences in a way few other public resources can.
My qualifications include 25 years’ experience with staffing and participating on voluntary non-profit boards. From organizing agendas to reporting minutes I believe this skill set and experience will be invaluable as member of the AHML Board. Please note that I have considerable experience in operations and have managed operating budgets as a nursing home administrator and manager at the American Hospital Association. Also, I have substantial public speaking experience and have a strong academic background in science, public administration and business administration that would serve the Board as well.
I am prepared to commit to learning more about both the strategic goals and operations of the AHML for the long term and I welcome a chance to serve our community.
