International President of LaSertoma International

Tracey Lamb

I joined Suburban LaSertoma after I graduated from college.  During my college years, I had been a member of a national service fraternity and was looking to join another group where I could be active in the community.  A co-worker introduced me to LaSertoma and I became a member immediately.  I loved the camaraderie and friendliness of the group and wanted to part of this great organization.  I have held the offices of President, Vice-President and Secretary of my club.  I have also been the International Director for the North Central Region and I am currently honored to be the President Elect of LaSertoma International.
