Dear Students,

It is my pleasure to announce the results of the 2012 Board Elections.  The following students will be the leaders and voices on behalf of the Part Time program for the next year.

President: David Croushore
VP of Outreach Baltimore: Antoine Foster
VP of Outreach DC: Vaibhav (VB) Thadakamalia
VP of Outreach Shady Grove: Jose Mendez
VP of Community Development: Adrian Lee
VP of Career Development: Ron Martin
VP of Finance: Matt Carey
VP of Marketing: Kristin Wagner

I would like to congratulate and thank all the candidates for elected office this year.  The success of the PTMBAA is dependent on the energy and enthusiasm of its students leaders and you are to be commended for your decision to run.

There will be a one month transition period from the current Board to the new Board.  The 2012 Board will take over responsibilities on April 1, 2012.  I would like to take a moment to thank the members of the 2011 PTMBAA Board for a truly memorable year.  Matt Baker, Ashton Jacobe, David Croushore, Dana Fox, Jay Dhar, Penelope Crocker and our amazing team of committee members dedicated many hours of time over the last year to the work of the PTMBAA Board.  It was truly an honor to work with all of you.

I hope that all students, and alumni, will support our new Board with their participation in suggesting and assisting with planning events and activities that bring educational, networking, and professional value to our community.

Congratulations again to the new 2012 PTMBAA Board!

Ms. Dannie Diego
