Hello NARALO's community and Staff, I’m truly honored to be nominated for such a fundamental role in the North American Region, and I happily accept the nomination. I also kindly ask the Staff to go ahead and post it. I know this will be a tough race—many amazing people are sure to step up—but let’s get moving! Serving as Secretariat is no easy task, but I'm ready to give my best to meet NARALO’s needs. Aligned with Greg Shatan’s priorities and vision for the coming year, I can already see it being a dynamic and productive time for our region! Thank you Judith for nominating me!

Hi All,

I am pleased to nominate Denise Hochbaum for NARALO Secretariat. Denise has been actively involved in the NARALO community since 2018, Since then she has gained significant insight into the daily operations of our region and areas that can be improved. She has a concrete plan on if elected what she will do to engage more NARALO members to become active as well as how to grow NARALO and bring in new members. Denise has been the NA Lead for DNS woman and also headed up the Social Media and Outreach activities for NARALO over the past years. She is fluent in English, Portuguese and is conversant in Spanish and would be an excellent choice to work with Greg as the Secretariat of NARALO.

Best,

Judith
