President's Message

Greetings ALSSAMT Members, Colleagues, and Friends,

It is my honor to welcome you into a new season of leadership within the Alabama State Society of American Medical Technologists. As your newly elected President, along with our updated Board of Directors, I am excited about the direction our society is moving. Together, we are entering this term with renewed purpose, fresh ideas, and a shared commitment to strengthening the Healthcare Profession throughout Alabama.

This year, one of our top priorities is to increase member engagement and bring more opportunities directly to you. We want to hear from you: your needs, your ideas, and your vision for ALSSAMT. We encourage every member to get involved and let us know which city or area you would like to see us host future state meetings, workshops, and networking events. Your feedback will help us better serve all regions of our state and ensure our society remains active, accessible, and responsive to our members.

As we begin this leadership term, we are excited to highlight several major meetings and events ahead:
