Vote

We realize that all candidates are running unopposed and the need to vote may seem irrelevant. However, to stay in compliance with the MAACCE Constitution and by-laws, a vote by MAACCE members is required. Thank you for taking the time to do this! Below are the photos and bios of those seeking election this year.

Candidate for President Elect – Karen Musemic

Karen Musemic began her career in social work in 1999.  During her social work years, Karen learned that lack of education was the most important barrier to success for most of her adult students.  She began working in adult education in 2004 as a teacher and a volunteer in the Ritenour Adult Education and Literacy program.  She became Ritenour’s AEL Director in 2015.  Her passion is to help students achieve a satisfying career with a life-sustaining income, and to support her team of teachers in helping their students to reach those goals.
