Honors, Accomplishments:
As the Regional Commissioner for Region 815, I increased the region player count by an additional hundred players each year for the two years that I was RC.
As an Area Director, I help merge Area B and Area J within Section 8 to become one combined area as Area B had not had an area director in several years. This provided for a stronger combined area for the sharing of two bi-yearly Super Camp, training resources, volunteers, interplay and tournament play.
As a participant on the Systems council, I was part of the team that created the AYSO Wikki that provides answers for AYSO volunteer questions.
As a participant on the Management and Systems, I helped update and move the job descriptions of the regional board positions from the printed manuals to the electronic format and put them on the AYSO Wikki.
As the Section 8 Director, I have promoted EPIC (Everyone Plays in Our Community), and I have added an EPIC Coordinator to my Section 8 staff for the purpose of promoting and growing EPIC within our section. I have increased volunteer representation from Section 8 on all AYSO National Councils. I have listened to Section 8 volunteers and moved the Section 8 Expo back to Michigan to decrease costs to regions, decrease travel time of volunteers and increase accessibility for volunteers to attend the expo. Expo attendance was increased by this move back to Michigan by forty percent. I have advocated to the National Board of Directors for changes to procedures and policies when clarification was needed or had not been already established previously.
