We welcome everyone’s participation to accelerate the growth that is essential to our success. I thank everyone who has supported me throughout the years, but especially the RMAI Board, our RMAI members, and my peers at The Bureaus, Inc. I look forward to working together to facilitate platforms where we can collectively discuss our industry, the barriers we face, and how we can positively move forward together.”
