ned for the Council and our members as we introduce our new Strategic Framework for the next three years in November.

the industry and our goal is continue to facilitate the growth and credi- bility of our members as successful business owners and professionals who are respected and influential in the real estate industry and the broader community.” Jo served as local chapter president of the Dekalb Chapter, which won
