About Vicki
At Verizon, Employee Safety is a very high priority. Managing
the Emergency Preparedness Program with Verizon, Vicki works side-by-side
with over 350 Deputy Emergency Preparedness Coordinators across the
country each year to ensure that Verizon’s 200,000+ employees
are educated and prepared in all aspects of emergency event management
and OSHA requirements.
Vicki’s true passions are her family and ABWA and she balances
her time with husband, Jack (whom she married at the 1997 Las Vegas
Spring Conference) and her children and grandchildren.
Vicki has served as Chapter President, Vice President, and Secretary
and has chaired and/or served on every chapter committee (including
Fund Raising for 10 years). For the Dallas Area Council Vicki
has served as Council Secretary, and chaired the Vision Women’s
Expo, Strut and Annual Woman of the Year Luncheon as well as serving
on numerous committees.
Vicki’s fun and innovative spirit and energy are her
trademark. Her favorite out of the box idea began almost 10
years ago when she initiated her chapter’s frequent “smileage” program – CLAMS
(Charisma Loves Active Members Smiling). ABWA involvement
awards CLAMS to chapter members and CLAMS are redeemed for chapter
or national dues, monthly dinners, and more. CLAMS are fun
and valuable! Creativity and forward thinking are the key to
our future.
