Meet new CAUW Board Member, Adam Garbin!

Wow — Adam is definitely not afraid to jump in with both feet! Although this is his first year serving on the CAUW Board, he has already made a huge impact. Adam asks thoughtful questions, isn’t afraid of hard work, and was an incredible mouse wrangler at our Big Cheese event last April!

CAUW Executive Director Kim Bausinger says the best way to describe Adam is with two words: heart and passion. Adam is one of those people who naturally becomes a driving force wherever he serves. Whether it’s handling mice, fixing a formatting issue on a document, or making phone calls to recruit volunteers, he’s always willing to step in and help.

Adam has a great balance of seeing both the big picture and the small details, and we are confident he’s going to be a fantastic voice on our Board.

Meet Cassandra Ludwig, CAUW’s Board Secretary! Cassandra is currently serving her second year on the board, bringing both thoughtful insight and a strong analytical mindset to the organization. Her connection to CAUW began through CWEP’s employee giving campaign, and she quickly jumped at the opportunity to join the board to learn more about CAUW’s work and help further its mission.

According to CAUW Director Kim Bausinger, Cassandra has a unique ability to listen carefully, process information thoroughly, and ask the kinds of questions that help fine-tune important details within the organization. As someone who is often moving “a mile a minute,” Kim especially appreciates Cassandra’s steady attention to detail and the thoughtful perspective she brings to every discussion.
