Current Executive
Jennifer Malzer, P.Eng
It was nearly ten years ago when I joined ITE by jumping in as the President of the newly-formed Student Chapter at the University of Manitoba. Our team had a great year, and managed to win the CITE student chapter award. When I moved west in 2005 I looked to continue my involvement with ITE, not only to meet great people, but to help out and to learn about transportation issues in Calgary.
During my first year in Alberta I acted as liaison between ITE Southern Alberta and the University of Calgary student chapter, then I continued on to become first treasurer, vice-president and president of ITESA. Now that I am ITESA’s past president I am excited to continue serving ITE in this new capacity at the national level.
As CITE Secretary / Treasurer I intend to bring a broad perspective based on my exposure to universities in different provinces, and communities of different sizes. For example, I have served at the section level, completed a MSc. degree in Manitoba, and continue to keep in close contact with the University of Calgary student chapter. Furthermore, ITESA recently helped Lethbridge establish a chapter. This multi-level involvement has given me a tremendous respect for some of the challenges facing our regional members.
My personal approach is to balance a strong drive for teamwork and to have fun while ‘working’ on behalf of our community. Recently, I helped share this philosophy with ITESA through the creation of a photo and a sustainable transportation competition at recent luncheons. I hope to bring that same approach to CITE – support our technical activities and complement their achievement with the fun we have, since we do have fun – our annual hockey tournament is an excellent case in point!
I appreciate your support to be CITE’s newly minted Secretary / Treasurer, and look forward to continuing my commitment to this vibrant organization.
