KEY GOALS
01 STUDENT INITIATIVES
Support and expand programs for the development and mentorship of the next generation of young professionals
Kimberly has always been passionate about the development and mentorship of the next generation of engineers and planners because of ITE’s impact on her as a student. ITE inspired her to start the Cal ITE chapter and solidified her path into the transportation profession. As the District’s Student Endowment Fund Chair since 2013, she oversaw the fund as it reached its $500,000 goal and expanded the Student Initiatives Program with the introduction of Regional Travel Scholarships. Now in her third term, she continues to manage programs to support students and young professionals. Student initiatives will remain one of her priorities as a District officer.
02 MEMBER EXPERIENCE
Increase access to ITE programs for members, particularly those from smaller Sections and the public sector
As a public agency member, Kimberly understands the challenges and barriers to participating in professional associations. As a District officer, she would like to explore making ITE more accessible through the online streaming of the District Annual Meeting’s keynote and technical sessions. Her leadership experiences at all levels of ITE provide her the insight to efficiently and equitably use resources to best serve members, particularly those from smaller Sections and the public sector.
