"Becoming a member of the WMC was one of the best decisions I could have made early on in my mining career. This organization opened my eyes to the greater role mining plays in our modern world and connected me with experts in the field through our membership. As President, I look forward to working the WMC to promote the value of a responsible, modern, domestic mining industry, as well as working to deconstruct and revolutionize antiquated perceptions of the industry in the United States." - Emily Hendrickson
