Message from the President of the Board 

Good day, 

I am honored to step into the role of ISM-Denver Chapter’s Board of Directors President following in the footsteps of Chris Vanderbilt and the other illustrious Presidents of the past.  Joining me on the journey, I would like to welcome my fellow new Board Members, Vice-President Jessica Moser, Treasurer Ken Rogel, and Secretary Marcella Lara.   

 I would like to thank Ginger and the outgoing Board Members for their dedication, service, and leadership as well as our association members for your trust and support over the last twelve months.  Last year was not without some significant obstacles, however; with ISM’s support, we are planning to expand on the good work of the past, bring in more speakers, create learning and networking opportunities, and continue to grow and support our members. 

I am thrilled to be working with an exceptional group of folks during the transition to new leadership and I hope you will take the time to get to know us. 

Thank you for allowing me to serve alongside you this year.  I truly appreciate your support and encourage you to share any feedback and ideas you may have as we work together in the upcoming year. 

 

Respectfully,

Kelly West 

2023-2024 President
