Cameron Buzzard, from Warren, Indiana, will help promote student engagement in APTA by serving as a link between the organization’s Student Assembly Board of Directors and students in physical therapy or physical therapy assistant programs throughout the state.
Responsibilities will include facilitating email communication between the directors and faculty contacts at academic programs, presenting APTA membership applications and taking part in an advocacy project.
