Hi Ross,
I see that you know Ali Aghtar at the HRPA. I came across his profile because I am looking to meet with people that work within a professional association environment. I’m hoping to speak with him so that I can get a better understanding of what it’s like within a not for profit environment and in particular, within an association. He also has a tech background like me, so I think we may have a few things in common. Could you introduce me? I’d only ask for 15 minutes of his time, and would really appreciate any advice he may have for me.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you,
Ranya
