Background: Joined The Post-Star as a sportswriter in 1981, became Assistant Sports Editor in 1983 and moved up to Sports Editor in 1999.
APSE experience: Attended annual convention in 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004. Attended winter meetings in 2001, 2002 and 2004. Active in the Northeast Region since the 1990s. Served as chair of APSE's Elections Turnout committee, 2003-04.
Objectives: We need to find ways to make APSE more relevant to the under-40,000 members. We should consider lowering dues for the smallest newspapers in our organization, and we need to offer, or continue offering, differential rates for expenses like convention fees and posting on the job board. We should stress and expand the educational tools offered by APSE, like one-on-one critiques, and make them available to those who can't attend the national convention.
