We have several open positions on the AAJA Seattle Board coming up this year. Think you’d be good for any of the positions below, or want to nominate someone who would be? Send an email (and your questions!) to chapter president Corinne Chin at aajaseattle@gmail.com. If you’re not sure about running, please reach out and schedule a coffee with her. Elections will be held later this month.

Come to our Dim Sum Saturday event this weekend — Oct. 13 at 11 a.m. — to learn more about the election process, the time commitments for these positions and the fun you can have as a Board member.
