Chapter President
Linda McNeil,
CPIM

|
Originally a CPA in Colorado,
Linda then moved to Customer Service with the airline industry for ten years.
After moving to Nevada in 1997, Linda started working at International Game
Technology, first in Accounts Receivable, then Cost Accounting, which led to her
interest in APICS and most recent two years in the Material Master Department
under Production Operations’ Manufacturing Engineering area.
She achieved her CPIM
certification in September 2007 and joined the Northern Sierra board as V.P.
Finance in the summer of 2007.
Linda holds APICS in high
regard and finds that the more she is involved at both the local and national
level, the more rewarding her membership becomes. She recognizes the great
educational and networking opportunities available through interaction with
other professionals at APICS events and Linda values the excellent leadership
development experience provided by her board service.
