For the past 28 years, I have proudly served our industry and the communities we represent.

Denyse Wilson Candidate for SRCAR® Board of Directors
I am proud to have been a member of SRCAR for 19 years and currently serve on the Legislative Committee.

Samir Riad Candidate for the SRCAR® Board of Directors
When I first made the decision to run for the SRCAR® Board of Directors five years ago, I did it as a relative newcomer to the association at that time. With an outsider’s perspective, I felt there was a disconnect between what SRCAR® members were expecting and what was being delivered. I’ve served on and led numerous non-profit organizations and government commissions, giving me a strong foundation in setting policy and running organizations effectively. George Bernard Shaw wrote, “Some men see things as they are, and say why. I dream of things that never were, and say why not.” In my view this is a challenge to look for better ways of doing things. For example, as a member of the Finance Committee and last year as Treasurer, I worked to bring more oversight and discipline to the association’s finances. The most important step in that effort was to bring on a financial professional to act as CFO for the organization, a position that had up to that point been filled by a REALTOR® volunteer.
