Full-service Association Management Experience:
- Society for Molecular
Imaging (2002 - 2006) Provided full service association
management for this newly founded international non-profit
scientific society which included planning their annual
scientific meeting. In the words of a past-president upon
Rhema's turning the society over to a co-worker in Texas:
"The San Francisco SMI meeting seems like only yesterday, but
through the years since that meeting you have helped all of us
build a solid foundation for the SMI that will last well into
the future. It has been your energy, insights, experience and
tremendous attitude that have turned this society into a
well-tuned, professionally run organization, and built its
annual meeting into an internationally renowned platform for
reporting on the most important advances in molecular imaging.
You should be very proud knowing that you have contributed
greatly to this emerging field, and we are all indebted to you
for helping us build a vibrant organization that serves the
imaging community so well. You have helped convert a vision into
a reality, and even though you have left the SMI in the very
capable hands of Charles and his team, we will miss you very
much."
- San Francisco
Neurological Society (2002 - 2005) Provided full-service
association management including planning an annual weekend CME
conference and 4-5 dinner meetings per year. In the words of a
past-president: “Joan has served the SF Neurological Society
as executive director and then as communications director for
many years (1995 is a guess as she started before I came on the
board). She helped draft bylaws, arranged for the organization
to become a 501c6 and took the society through the process of
being certified to provide CME (educational credit). She
continues to manage our website and design and send mailings and
email blasts for meetings She is extremely knowledgeable,
efficient, dedicated, trustworthy, reliable, creative and a
really nice person. She has always had our backs and I hope that
she will continue to do so, whatever her principle project is.”
