Vivit Board Director
Vice President Operations/Nominations Chair

I am pleased to announce that the 2020 Board of Directors election is complete.

I would like to take a moment to thank those of you who took the time to vote in our recent election. For those that do not already know, Vivit has a Board of Directors that consists of nine directors who manage our staff and provide leadership and direction to our Local User Group and Special Interest Group leaders throughout the world. Vivit had 3 open seats for 3-year terms for the election.

It is my distinct pleasure to announce the newly elected 2020 Vivit Board Directors:

	Pedro Miguel Jeronimo Mendes Warpcom Lisbon, Portugal USA
	Neil Suryanarayana Physicians Mutual Omaha, Nebraska USA
	Chris Trimper Independent Health Buffalo, NY USA

I would also like to thank the other nominated candidates who although they were not elected to the board this year, they were exceedingly strong candidates who volunteer their time in the Vivit community. We are proud to have them as members of our organization and hope that they’ll consider standing for election in future years.

	Terri Sims Aflac Atlanta, Georgia USA
	Louis Tadman Bienabee, Bellevue, Washington USA
	Mike Warner FCCI Insurance Group, Bradenton, FL USA

Finally, I would like to take a moment to thank Chris Carpenter and Todd DeCapua who are both departing from the Vivit Board this year. Chris is coming off a 2-year term and Todd a 3-year term and they both have been large contributors to the Vivit Board. Their departures will be a great loss to our team and we wish them well and hope that they will stay in touch.

	Chris Carpenter Bienabee Bellevue, WA USA
	Todd DeCapua Splunk Wilmington, Delaware USA

Thank you to all our Vivit members who took the time to participate in our 2020 Board Elections.
