My name is Kay McClain and I am running for a second term as Secretary of SWAFS. The past two years as Secretary have gone by so fast and there is still so much more I would like to accomplish. One of the main goals I have been working on as Secretary is organizing all of the past meeting minutes and documents to be compiled electronically for easier storage. I have also enjoyed working with the other board members to make sure our members are recognized for all that they do to contribute to our organization. As an 8 year forensic chemist and a member of SWAFS since 2005, it would be an honor to serve you again and the organization. Please take the opportunity to cast your vote and include me on your ballot.
