Board and Staff

Chapter Staff

The Chapter is a volunteer run organization but staff is critical for ensuring daily operations and growth of the organization. Suzanne Abbott is the main point of contact for the Chapter as the Chapter Operations Manager. If you are interested in volunteering, sponsoring the Chapter, have questions about partnerships, etc., please  email Suzanne at sabbott@usgbcma.org.
