2007 - 2008 Board of Directors

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.
