Board of Directors 2026

A Message from the Board Chair

I’m honored to serve as Board Chair this year and to help advocate for a strong, sustainable business climate in Interior Alaska. In 2026, the Board is focused on clear, actionable advocacy priorities that reflect our members’ needs and guide our engagement locally, in Juneau, and in Washington, D.C.

My top priority as Board Chair is strengthening the Chamber’s advocacy on behalf of our members. The Board has adopted a focused set of Key Advocacy Positions centered on fiscal stability, reliable and affordable energy, infrastructure and housing, workforce development and education, and regulatory certainty.

Strong advocacy requires alignment, expertise, and teamwork. I’m grateful for the leadership of our CEO, the dedication of our staff, and the hard work of our volunteer committee members, whose knowledge and experience help advance our goals. I encourage members to stay engaged, share their perspectives, and reach out anytime as we move this work forward together.

And if you’re not yet a member, I invite you to join us—our members’ support helps make our advocacy efforts possible.
