Accomplishments

I have volunteered as the Executive Secretary for the Wyoming Association of Fairs (WAF) since the Fall of 2020; I manage the association's finances, membership, and scholarship programs. My financial responsibilities include maintaining records and overseeing income and expenses. I also manage all aspects of membership, from applications and renewals to maintaining the membership database. Additionally, I administer the two annual scholarship applications. A major part of my role is coordinating the WAF's annual convention, which involves various logistical and planning tasks. Finally, I ensure the WAF remains compliant by filing the required annual reports with the Wyoming Secretary of State.
