FEI Tampa Bay members, sponsors, and friends,
As we move through 2025, we find ourselves navigating an environment filled with both challenges and opportunities – from tariffs and trade uncertainty to a cooling economy and high costs. These factors have made our jobs even more challenging.
In times like these, I’m deeply grateful for the strength and support of our FEI Tampa Bay community. The value of a deep professional network is never clearer than when facing adversity.
As we continue to roll with the changing tides, I want to encourage each of you to take advantage of the many tools FEI offers to members on both a local and national scale. Whether it’s connecting with colleagues at local chapter events, engaging with peers on FEIconnect, or accessing career services and professional development opportunities, FEI is here to serve as your partner in the finance industry.
Let’s continue to support one another, share our knowledge, and uphold the values that make FEI Tampa Bay such a special community. I am proud to serve as your president and look forward to all that we will accomplish together in the coming year.
Sincerely,
Shirley Risen
Chapter President
