The following spring, I applied for a steering committee position and have been affiliated with CHEST Networks since 2015.

What is something you cannot live without (after family and friends)?
Good music (can be any genre or singer).

Is there anything else you’d like to share with your Network peers?
Being part of CHEST has been a very gratifying experience. I have been involved in educational content creation, annual meeting organization, guidelines development, etc, and I have also made some lifelong friendships. Most importantly, CHEST has helped me in my professional development and has opened doors to new opportunities and partnerships. I encourage you to consider getting involved in the CHEST Networks.
