<strong>Board</strong> Position: Treasurer<br />

Statement: I am interested in serving the design community as treasurer with the <strong>AIA</strong><br />

<strong>Central</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>Board</strong> of Directors to help improve our understanding of the built<br />

environment. By serving as a current Director for the <strong>Central</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Chapter, I found the<br />

dialogue between architects, engineers, contractors and the community can have a<br />

positive impact on the built environment. Being the Treasurer provides an excellent<br />

opportunity to broaden the potential impact of such collaboration. If elected, I would<br />

bring an enduring commitment, organizational skills and an aspiration to engage the<br />

entire community to the <strong>Board</strong> of Directors.<br />

Name: Pat Derickson, <strong>AIA</strong><br />

<strong>Board</strong> Position: Director<br />

Education: B.Arch University of Oregon<br />

Involvement: <strong>AIA</strong>CV <strong>Board</strong>, CSI-Past President Sacramento<br />

Chapter, CSHE, ASHE, SacMetro Chamber – Healthcare and<br />

Biosciences task force, Region Builders Council Member<br />

Member Since: 1998<br />

Statement: The <strong>AIA</strong> is the voice of the architectural profession. As the profession<br />

continues to struggle within the worst economy in 80 years with pressure to change the<br />

way we practice accelerating, we need the <strong>AIA</strong>CV to be a strong advocate and resource<br />

for us. We have many common interests: architectural design, sustainable design,<br />

integrated project delivery, LEAN principles, and building information modeling. To be<br />

effective, the <strong>AIA</strong> must be relevant to its members, but the bigger challenge may be for<br />

us to remain relevant to our communities. This is an important dialogue to have and I<br />

am very pleased to have the opportunity to be part of it.<br />
