President's Message
Dear Members,
I would like to take a moment to give thanks and gratitude as I reflect on this past year. First of all, I would like to thank the 2024 Officers and Board Members for an incredible year. It has been my privilege to work alongside such a dedicated group of echocardiography professionals.
One of our objectives this year was to create a pathway for membership to students and new graduates by offering reduced membership rates. We have also opened up student attendance at our Fall Symposium free of charge. Our hope is to welcome students and new graduates to all the Society has to offer as they navigate the start of their careers.
We also held a holiday membership drive with reduced rates to allow attainable member benefits for all. Additionally, our hope for the Society is to provide a professional framework while creating a space for networking and support. We also strive to be a source of insightful CME offerings while providing engaging volunteer and speaking opportunities. We encourage members who are so inclined to serve as an officer, board member, or speaker to ensure the Society’s continued success and sustainability.
A hallmark benefit of membership is our quarterly CME offerings. This year we hosted educational lectures from Steven Walling, Nikki Adams, and Jon Owensby. Furthermore, we hosted our Fall Symposium on September 7th, and it was a resounding success. The Society forged strong relationships with our vendor partners, and I thank them for their continued patronage. I would also like to thank our symposium speakers for their support, efforts, and expertise. We were able to enjoy a day with our members and colleagues in conjunction with cutting edge educational offerings and great raffle giveaways!
Finally, I would like to offer a heartfelt thank you to our members for your continued support as we continue to grow and thrive. I wish you all a happy holiday season and happy New Year. It has been my privilege to serve the Society this past year and look forward to ushering in the 2025 Officers and Board Members.
Thank you,
Melissa Escudero, MHA, ACS, RDCS, RDMS, FASE
