PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

By Melissa Brown
I
t is truly an honor and privilege to be serving as the 2020 CAI-San Diego President!
Following in the footsteps of our 2019 President, Rachael Robenolt, I am hoping to
carry on the great job, momentum and excitement set by my predecessors.
I want to welcome our two new Board Members, Laura Kwiatkowski and Tim
Flanagan! We are excited to have you on board and are looking forward to another
record breaking year for CAI-SD. I also want to thank our outgoing board members, Brian
Kalmenson, Patrick Morrisey and Patrick Prendiville, whose hard work and dedication
to CAI-SD cannot go without being recognized. Thank you both! Our officers this year
are, Nathan Cornett (President-Elect), Clint McClure (Vice President), Garrett Reynolds
(Treasurer) and Robert Riddick (Secretary).
We had an exciting January with our Awards Gala at the Kona Kai Resort.
Congratulations to all of the award winners and nominees! The Awards Gala was amazing
this year, I do not recall ever seeing so many attendees. Thank you to all of our sponsors
and all of you for making it an unforgettable night! The Gala was followed up by the
Reverse Trade Show, which was also a successful event. Thank you to all the Management
Companies that participated and all of our industry service providers that attended.
I am looking forward to seeing everyone throughout the year and am open to any
feedback or input on how we can improve or how great we are doing! Thank you for being
a part of CAI-San Diego!
