Dear NYCRA Members,

​

It is both an honor and a privilege to serve as President of the New York Cancer Registrars Association. Having been involved with NYCRA for many years, including serving as Secretary since 2017, I am grateful for the opportunity to continue supporting an organization that plays such an important role in advancing the cancer registry profession throughout New York State.

​

NYCRA has always been built on the dedication, expertise, and commitment of its members. Whether you are new to the profession or a seasoned registrar, your contributions are essential to ensuring high-quality cancer data that supports patient care, research, and cancer control efforts. I am proud to be part of this remarkable community and look forward to working alongside all of you.

​

As we move forward together, my goals as President include:

• Strengthening member engagement by encouraging participation in committees, educational programs, and networking opportunities.

• Expanding educational resources to support professional development, continuing education, and evolving industry standards.

• Fostering collaboration with regional, state, and national organizations to promote knowledge sharing and strengthen our collective impact.

• Supporting future professionals by encouraging mentorship, outreach, and opportunities for those entering the cancer registry field.

• Enhancing communication and transparency to ensure members remain informed and connected to the work of the Association.

 

As healthcare and cancer surveillance continue to evolve, NYCRA remains committed to providing the resources, education, and support our members need to succeed. Together, we can build on the Association's strong foundation while embracing new opportunities for growth and innovation.

​

Thank you for your continued support of NYCRA. I look forward to working with each of you and to an exciting and successful year ahead.
