After serving as VP and marketing director since Jan. 1, Randi Swisher has been promoted to president of the American Fly Fishing Trade Association, or AAFTA. 


According to AFFTA Chairman Alan Gnann, Since Randi came on board January 1, weve been very impressed with his work habits, ethics and communication ability.  We are confident that Randi will meet the new responsibilities which accompany the Presidents position with the same level of enthusiasm and professionalism that he has exhibited since coming to work for AFFTA.

For the past two months, I received on-the-job training from AFFTA Office Manager Mischa Jones and former president, and now part-time business manager Gary Berlin said Swisher.  Although I still have a lot to learn, I feel comfortable in my new role and I look forward to serving as the president of AFFTA for many years to come.


Swishers promotion took effect March 1.
