continuing my long-standing support of the Academy and its work. I currently serve on the Academy’s Casualty Practice Council assisting with public policy work on property/casualty issues. I am currently chairperson of the Actuarial Standards Board’s Casualty Committee charged with developing, enhancing, and maintaining standards of practice that apply to property/casualty actuaries. In the past, I have served on ASB task forces responsible for the creation of several new actuarial standards of practice exposure drafts.
