Hello Everyone!

As a member of the Golden Gate chapter of the NSMS since I moved to the Bay Area I am very much honored to be your chapter president. These are tough times for everyone but one area that we all know can’t be compromised is safety.

Part of being an effective safety professional is to expand our safety knowledge and keep up with the changing times. This can be a challenging task, but one we are trying to make easier by providing informative speakers at our chapter meetings. At each NSMS meeting I have attended I have learned at least one new piece of information, met a new safety professional or touched base with friends new and old.

The executive committee is working hard to provide luncheon speakers that are relevant to the profession of safety management and are valuable to us all. If you have suggestions for speakers or topics of interest, please contact any of the board members. We want to make our luncheon meetings and future seminars as useful to you as they have been to all of us.

I hope to see you all soon. If you haven’t been to a meeting for a while they are on the second Friday of every other month at HS Lordships in Berkeley and as always the buffet is delicious. I hope to meet even more of you, please stop by and say hello.

This is your NSMS chapter, give us some ideas and we’ll try and make them happen, but most of all come out to the meetings.

See you there!

Helen Chandler, CIE
Chapter President
