Welcome to a new year with SITE Southeast. It’s time to Turn it Up!
As we head into 2026, I’m grateful and excited to serve as your President during a year focused on connection and involvement. This is a time to build on what already makes our chapter strong: engaged members, meaningful relationships, and a shared commitment to growth.
This year invites us to show up with energy and intention, to create experiences that matter, and to continue evolving in ways that support both our members and our industry.
Spanning Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Kentucky, SITE Southeast is shaped by our region and by a spirit of southern hospitality. Warmth, authenticity, and strong relationships are part of how we do business and how we build community. In the year ahead, we’ll lean into that spirit through creative programming and opportunities to connect across state lines.
My goal is to ensure space for every member to feel welcomed, valued, and encouraged to get involved. Whether you’re a longtime member or attending your first event, your voice and participation matter here.
On a personal note, I believe strong chapters are built when people trust one another and feel comfortable raising their hand. I’m committed to listening closely and encouraging others as they find their own path into leadership.
Thank you to our Board, committee volunteers, members, and sponsors — your dedication is what allows ideas to become action. I’m excited for what we’ll create together and look forward to seeing SITE Southeast turn it up in the year ahead.
At your service and with gratitude,
Lauren Singer Perry
President, SITE Southeast
