The OWA announces its officer slate for 2015, along with additional changes to the Board of Directors.
The Executive Committee sees changes with the departure of Jodi Groh, previously with Nanofilm, from the board at the end of December 2014, after serving for three years. Previous OWA Secretary / Treasurer, Heather Smith has stepped into the role of Vice President for 2015, taking the position previously held by Groh. Smith, VisionWeb's Director of Marketing, also co-chairs the Digital Marketing Committee along with new board member, Liz Segre.
Kate Renwick-Espinosa has moved into Smith's Secretary / Treasurer position. Renwick-Espinosa, Chief Marketing Officer, VSP Global, has served on the OWA Board of Directors for one-and-one-half years. Renwick-Espinosa is also the Co-Chair of the Mentoring Committee, along with new board member, Debbie Myres.
Debbie Lochli completed her board term in September 2014, but continues to remain active in the OWA and continues her work on the Mentoring Committee.
"It's been a real pleasure working with both Jodi and Debbie over the last few years. We appreciate their enthusiastic support of the OWA and all of the contributions they have made to the organization," said Christie Walker, OWA President. "In my second year as president, I'm enjoying working closely with Heather, Kate, and Ann Englert on the Executive Committee and with all the OWA board members. Together we strive to connect, inspire and lead for the benefit of our members."
