Meet The Board: 2022-2023
Each year, the members of the Society vote on the officers and directors of the SPD Board. We’re excited to welcome five new board members this year (Chuck, Josue, Jeanne, Taylor, and Jana) and congratulate our new officers (Emily, Natalie, David, Emem, and Dennis). Special thanks to our outgoing board members for serving on the board.
