We Are Growing!
|
|
Interest in aquatic therapy, and ARN in general, has really taken off in recent months. To that end, we have hired a CEO, Lee Salzman, to help us expand our magazine, Internet and seminar offerings, as well as chart new strategic opportunities.
Lee is a business development expert who will be bringing 15 years of Fortune 500 consulting experience to our humble enterprise. Even better? He's my husband. As you hear more from him in the coming weeks, I hope you will join me in welcoming him as he advances our aquatic therapy cause to exciting new territory.
