ASCP is pleased to welcome Natalie Sherry as our new Senior Director of Membership. Ms. Sherry brings more than 20 years of experience working with professional societies at the state and national levels, and she looks forward to expanding ASCP’s member outreach efforts.
“I would like to see the members engage with ASCP and propel their careers forward,” she said. “We want every member to be involved at a level that works for them.”
That could mean encouraging members to take advantage of ASCP scholarships or grants, applying for a recognition award to showcase their contributions to the profession, utilizing the Society’s resources to prepare for an exam, serving on a committee, council or board, or introducing elementary and high school students to career opportunities in pathology and laboratory medicine.
“Being a member of a professional society, especially in the medical field, is one of the best ways that individuals can advance themselves within their field. They gain so much technical and leadership experience.”
Ms. Sherry will have a visible presence on social median, so feel free to reach out and connect with her.
“I like to hear from members about what they like, and even what is not quite working for them,” she says. “Then, we know if we are on the right track. And, hearing different perspectives is a wonderful way to help us continue to evolve our programs. We want to be able to tell our members’ stories and really elevate visibility of pathology and laboratory medicine!”
