President's Corner

President’s Corner - June


Again, thank you!


This is my final President's Corner as I conclude my second term as President of FEI Louisville. Serving this chapter has been an honor, and I sincerely appreciate the trust you placed in me to help lead this outstanding organization.


At the beginning of the year, the Board of Directors established clear objectives for our chapter. I also set several personal goals that I believed would strengthen FEI Louisville. Together, I'm proud that we achieved meaningful progress, including:


  • Strong membership growth
  • Additional Gold and Silver sponsors
  • Expansion of our Board
  • Greater diversity within our Board leadership


Increasing the diversity of our Board has been one of our long-term goals, and I'm especially proud that we achieved it together this past year.


I would also like to thank Matt Monteiro for his work organizing last year's membership drive. His efforts contributed to our membership growth, and I appreciate the time and energy he devoted to the chapter.


None of these accomplishments would have been possible without the dedication of our members, sponsors, our volunteers, and especially our Board of Directors. Thank you all for your commitment to making FEI Louisville an even stronger organization.


I also want to congratulate Doug Wickenheiser as he begins his term as President. I have every confidence that Doug will continue building on our momentum and lead our chapter to even greater success.


As my term comes to a close, I know FEI Louisville's best days are still ahead, and I look forward to supporting the chapter as an active member under Doug's leadership.

Thank you once again for the privilege of serving as your President. It has truly been an honor.
