Why is being a board member of NABSA important to you?

Serving on the NABSA board is an opportunity to develop new collaborative relationships and strengthen existing ones. The willingness of NABSA members to share what they know for the mutual benefit of the industry has been invaluable to our business and to my career in bike share.

What experience or insight do you bring to your position on the board?

If I have a special sauce, it’s experience. Since I got in to bike sharing in 2008, I’ve had the opportunity to work with people across the industry in the US and abroad. I’ve had some successes, made plenty of mistakes and changed my mind about things that once seemed set in stone. I’m every bit as hopeful for the future of bike sharing now as I was a decade ago.
