I still serve with MIRA on the Foundation Board, so I can bring my connections with the outside world to build a better connection with MIRA, and all of those dealings with corporate America in my time with MIRA have helped me in my role today at ACC.

I feel that the MIRA organization is a great way to bring together people in the industry for exchanges of ideas and concepts, and it’s a great way to meet people through MIRA’s various functions and events.

I don’t think people take enough advantage of the new programs MIRA offers. The organization is all about the people now, which is different than it was many years ago.

Before, MIRA was all about donations. After Auday (arabo) took over (as President) though, the programs and organization improved tremendously. It’s all about helping the people and not just asking your members for donations.

The MIRA Bottom Line magazine is a great publication to see whats going on in the industry. We try to keep up with all the trends.

As MIRA gains more members, we become stronger, and this results in more legislators listening to our voice regarding issues that affect our businesses.
