Message from the President

Happy New Year!

I am thrilled to lead the WTS Atlanta Chapter in 2025 and 2026. WTS has being integral to my growth as a professional in the transportation industry, and I look forward to build on the great work done by past leaders over the 42-year history of this Chapter. 

The 2025-2026 WTS Atlanta Board of Directors is comprised of a diverse group of transportation leaders dedicated to the vision and mission of WTS. As the Chapter President, I am incredibly excited about the opportunities ahead. Together, we will continue to inspire, connect, and support our members, by providing diverse programs and opportunities for engagement. Stay tuned for all the great events we are planning for our members in 2025.

We currently have almost 300 members in our local chapter – and we are working hard to meet the goal set to reach 400 members for our 40th anniversary in 2022. We will not stop until that goal is reached... and exceeded! 

I encourage you to reach out to me or to any of our Board members with ideas, questions, comments. The strength of our Chapter is measured by how engaged are our members and by the value of the programs we provide. Together, we will continue to position WTS Atlanta as the premier transportation professional organization in the region.
