To My SNMA Family,

Join Me In Pushing Our Mission Forward.

At the heart of the National President’s responsibilities is the ethos of servant leadership. Being the son of missionaries, this is a principle that has been central to my life from a young age. This upbringing, instilled in me a profound dedication to serving others, shaping my approach to leadership as one that prioritizes the needs of the community and fosters an environment of support, empowerment, and collective growth. My upbringing coupled with my experiences in various leadership roles within and outside the SNMA, has profoundly prepared me for the postion of National President-Elect. Building upon this foundation, my platform “Enrich, Empower, Establish” aims to drive the SNMA forward.
