Growing Greetings to my fellow professional SCRABBLE members of the game of North American SCRABBLE Players Association (NASPA). Our social gathering has partially crumbled and been my priority since 2009 impacted by isolation and will be my priority for NASPA moving forwardshelter-in-place policies as a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic. HiNonetheless, our abilities to actively network various social media in these difficult times remain unchanged, my name is Andy Hoangas some of us constantly connect online and play scrabble virtually. I am James Flomo, a resident of Prince George’s County (MD) and a member of both the District of Columbia and Bowie sanctioned SCRABBLE Clubs. I would hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Criminal Justice and am married with children. I am formally registering my interest to be so honored nominated and humbled elected to serve as your the NASPA Advisory Board member because in June 2020. I came to the United States in 1998 upon an invitation to participate in the 1998 then National SCRABBLE Championship held in Chicago (IL). My passion and love for the SCRABBLE game date as far back as 1978 while in my junior year in high school in my native land, Liberia. Never did I think that I would have been socially intertwined or occupied my time with the “world’s most popular indoor game." My interest at the vision, voicetime was purposely recreational – intended to only boost my word power and vocabulary in competing in spelling contests. Little did I know that I would one day become a professional SCRABBLE player competing with fellow professionals in sanctioned tournaments around the world. In 1995, my passion for the game further grew actively when I became the first organizer and track record chairman of growing and advocating for the SCRABBLE game we all love to playin Liberia, West Africa. SCRABBLE is more than just I was instrumental in having the game officially registered and recognized as a professional indoor game we indulge (like other games such as soccer and basketball) with the Ministry of Youth & Sports in Liberia, West Africa. In 1997, a 5- it is a big part member team of the National SCRABBLE Association of our lifeLiberia, including myself, was invited to participate in the World SCRABBLE Championship held in Washington DC. Unfortunately, Liberia could not participate due to political upheaval and civil crisis at the time. Again in 1998, an invitation was accorded us to participate in the then National SCRABBLE Championship held in Chicago (IL), and we did commit ourselves to participate. Take this from a former School Since then, I have continued to actively play professional SCRABBLE player who both at the national and club levels. A synopsis of my profile and activities with NASPA can be found his identity with [[James Flomo |here]]. I can, therefore, assure you that if nominated and elected as one of your Advisory Board Committee Members, I will faithfully and diligently execute the duties assigned me – to assist the Executive Committee to decide matters of policy and adjudicate appeals on decisions made by other committees of the Association. Hence, I am committed to ensuring that we not only professionally play the game, but find ways to continuously improve the SCRABBLE communitygame worldwide and encourage more people to join our endeavors. --> |}
