"It has been an absolute honor serving as a resident board member these past two years! This role has offered me a unique opportunity to work alongside expert clinicians, researchers and industry partners, helped me gain a deeper understanding of energy-based devices and their applications and has given me practical leadership skills. Most importantly, this role has helped me forge life-long friendships and mentorships with thought leaders, innovators, and experts in the field, for which I am incredibly grateful. ASLMS offers countless, invaluable resources for early-career members, and I urge all young clinicians and scientists who use energy-based devices to become a member. I thank ASLMS and my fellow board members for allowing me this tremendous opportunity, and I look forward to continued involvement in ASLMS for years to come!"

"My experience as the Student Board representative for early career members has been very helpful in gaining an understanding of the inner working of the ASLMS, the society’s missions, and how it goes about fulfilling those mission statements. Through this position, I am privileged to interact with the current and future leaders of this society to help shape its initiatives and provide a point of view that is focused on early career members. The ASLMS board and its staff have been incredibly inviting and are eager to be inclusive and hear from the new committee members. I am excited to roll out initiatives that I have been working on with my co-representative including a Grant Writing Workshop. I have learned a lot about not only the ASLMS, but how most national societies conduct business. I have been able to gain a better understanding of the complex work that the ASLMS staff and board complete year in and year out to help the society run and flourish. I am extremely grateful to serve as an early career representative and am committed to bringing the voice of my peers to our board. This position provides an excellent networking opportunity. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in including the use of laser and light-based technologies in their career practice or research portfolio. It truly is the premier society to connect with others interested in similar clinical problems and/or research questions and to learn from them in real-time. I encourage anyone interested in applying in the future to reach out to me with any questions regarding this position. "
