Welcome to SEMpdx’s featured member profile post for November. Before we get to this month’s featured member interview, I wanted to quickly welcome new and renewing SEMpdx members:
Lani Farnmorth (new), Spyker Media (renewing), SQ1 Portland (new), Speedy Septic Service (new), University of Western States (new), and KOIN Channel 6 (new)*.
This month’s featured member is Sue Hughes from Resolutions, Inc.
As criteria for selection, SEMpdx members must have a completed profile in our membership directory, and then we randomly select a member. More information about completing a member profile is at the bottom of this post. In addition to the member profile that is shared on our website and newsletter, featured members will receive complimentary ticket to that month’s educational event.
