The NEFA board of directors includes 13 members who have demonstrated leadership in the leasing industry, and represent a cross section of the membership.

“It is an honor for me as a professional in the equipment leasing industry to be elected onto the NEFA Board of Directors,” Dalgaard said. “This year’s board has a good mix of service providers and equipment lessors appointed, including a variety of ages and genders well represented. I’m excited to be a part of this change in the association and to see what the director is going to bring to this new environment.”
As the only accountant, Anne brings a unique perspective. She works alongside lawyers, business consultants and other leading professionals on the board. She provides support to leasing clients and colleagues within the organization by being able to cross-reference other backgrounds.”
