Lee Levin:

Dear Fellow Union Members:

The past two years have been rewarding as an Executive Director.  The Board has worked tirelessly to improve our local, however, it is now time for a change.  We need to update our web site, and streamline our operations by using technology to our advantage.  With a modern, cost cutting approach, we can use the money saved to provide you with better services, and in turn, our music community can grow.

I have a Music Business degree from UM and serve as Treasurer for RMA Florida.  It would be an honor to be elected as Secretary-Treasurer.
