DEAR ARMA NJ MEMBERS AND FRIENDS,
I hope you all had a fantastic summer filled with memorable moments and rejuvenation. As the kids head back to school and we embrace the changing seasons, it's our pleasure to welcome you back to ARMA NJ and kick off an exhilarating new program year!
With enthusiasm, we share that our Chapter has been hard at work refining our goals, and the journey ahead looks incredibly promising. The dedication and commitment of our members are truly driving us toward success, and we're thrilled to embark on this journey together.
We are thrilled to announce the addition of two new members to the ARMA NJ Leadership Team. Joining us this year are Cherlyn Acquista and Jordan Baron. Cherlyn, Assistant Director Preservation and Disposition at EY, will be assisting the Board with Programming while Jordan, VP of Sales at Innovative Document Imaging LLC is stepping into the role of Director previously held by BJ Johnson.
There are still many opportunities available if you're interested in getting involved. You can volunteer for an hour, a week, a day or whatever suits your schedule. I'm always happy to jump on a call and discuss ways that you can help that fit your life. Contact me to schedule a call at [email protected].
Now let's dive into fall with a look at what's ahead. Mark your calendars for an engaging event on September 13th. We are privileged to have Steve Dalina, Rutgers University's Director of Records Management, as our guest speaker at the University Records Center.
Steve will take us on a tour of the state of the art facility and then talk to us about "Tools of the Trade," an enlightening session to empower you with the essential items for your Records and Information Management toolbox.
October 18th is a date to remember, as we return to the Rutgers Club for our annual "CONNECT | ENGAGE | NETWORK | CELEBRATE" event. This informal gathering provides the perfect backdrop to catch up with colleagues, interact with fellow Chapter members, and hone your networking prowess.

The excitement doesn't stop there! On October 25th, we're embracing the virtual realm with a thought-provoking presentation from Michael Potters CEO of The Glenmont Group. Michael, an acclaimed recruiter, will share insights into the Influence of AI and emerging technologies on the RIM and IG professions. This session promises to be a compass guiding you towards effectively navigating the future landscape.
November 15th brings us back together in person for an enriching event, "Unlocking the Power of Archiving and Information Management."
