In Brief

  • MPI Member Spotlight “Interview”
    GOAMPI Supplier in the Spotlight:
    Lindsay Cosimi


    The member spotlights are fashioned as interviews and appear in Q & A form. The questions are designed to help members get to know you personally and professionally. They also give an opportunity to share some of the things you’ve learned along the way. You don’t have to answer all the questions, so if you have nothing to say on a subject, there’s no need to force it or if the question doesn’t really apply to you, by all means skip it. They are merely suggested questions and you do not have to answer every one of them. But do answer as many as possible to help readers get a complete picture of who are you are. You can enter you answers directly into the document.


    Make sure you send a photo along with this document. 

    Once completed, please send this form and a photo to Chris Doyle, Vice President - Communications, at chrisdoyle@cfl.rr.com.
