It was an absolute honor to work with the Illinois Section of the American Water Waters Association. The Executive Director, Annie Storey, is an innovative leader, open to new ideas. I felt like it was truly a collaboration, my thoughts and ideas were valued. We met weekly and brainstormed different ideas to figure out the best course of action moving forward. Annie set clear expectations and was always respectful. This was a fun experience that I would recommend to anyone looking to add value to another organization and put competencies into action.
