Hi everyone,
The national USGenWeb annual election will start in July and I am delighted
to share with you all that I am a candidate for the National Coordinator
position; I would truly love your support!
When I first became a volunteer for the USGenWeb Project in 2007, it all
started in Tennessee when I became the coordinator for Blount County. Next,
I joined the NCGenWeb team as a coordinator, then webmaster, and then
Assistant State Coordinator. I am humbled to have also been the TNGenWeb
State Coordinator since 2011. Most recently, I became a member of the
USGenWeb Advisory Board and as I think about all of my experiences in the
project, I am truly joyful to have served to help others in their genealogy
quest and family history. Even more so, the knowledge, experience, and
expertise of all of you have been ever so important and helped me broaden
my own horizons and understanding.
I decided to run for the National Coordinator position because I feel I
have much to offer the project and I would gladly welcome the opportunity
to continue learning from all of you. Most importantly, hearing your ideas
on how we can work together and ensure the USGenWeb Project remains a
cornerstone of the genealogical community. Many of the efforts I've
coordinated on behalf of the Project have received national accolade as
I've tried to do what I can to broadly disseminate information about what
we do and what we offer. I love advocating for the project and would
leverage my active presence in the online genealogy community to extol all
of our project's virtues. It truly would not be the cornerstone that it is
without the tireless dedication of all of you and our steadfast volunteers.
