Aug. 28, 2015—Jessie Korosec of the Equipment & Tool Institute (ETI) and Valerie Sullivan of American Honda were announced as co-chairs of the National Automotive Service Task Force (NASTF) communications committee for 2015-2016.

“Our communications committee has the great responsibility of overseeing the quality and effectiveness of our website, newsletter and social media. The co-chairs of this committee, particularly, must have a generous passion for NASTF, and we are certainly fortunate that Valerie and Jessie have extended their years of commitment to NASTF into service as Co-Chairs of this important committee,” said Allen Pennebaker, NATSF chairman.

Each of the six NASTF committees are required by NASTF bylaws to have leadership by one representative of the OEMs and one representative of the independent industry.

Jessie Korosec, marketing and events manager at ETI, has been appointed the independent co-chair of the communications committee. Valerie Sullivan, senior coordinator for the American Honda Motor company, will serve as the committee's OEM co-chair.

“Jessie and Valerie are no strangers to the many other volunteer leaders involved with NASTF; and their recent efforts in making NASTF valuable to the industry make them no strangers to me,” said Skip Potter, NASTF executive director. “I look forward to supporting their leadership in this important committee.”
