“I am honored and proud to serve on the Sangamon Valley CEO Board. The program offers students the opportunity to learn and experience fundamentals of business that might have otherwise been unavailable to them. I have discussed business fundamentals and participated in Banker Day with prior groups, and find it a great learning experience for both the students and myself. The growth that I have witnessed in the students over the course of the year is amazing and will surely help them in whatever endeavor they choose for their career.”
