Meet the AANA Board of Directors Candidates for 2025-2026

It’s election season for the AANA, and that means it’s time to hear directly from the candidates. In this special edition of Beyond the Mask, we continue the annual tradition of giving CRNAs across the country an opportunity to listen to the voices, values, and visions of those running for national office. You’ll hear from all 10 candidates for Director, both Treasurer candidates, and the individuals running for Vice President and President-Elect. Each message has been lightly edited for clarity and time, but the core message is unchanged: these are the professionals who want to help shape the future of nurse anesthesiology. Whether you’re undecided or just want to hear where your peers stand on leadership, advocacy, education, and innovation, this episode will help you make an informed decision before casting your vote. Voting is open now through May 27. Don’t miss your chance to be heard.
