Posted September 24, 2015

Jeremy Martelle, CHA Consulting’s Regional Manager of Aviation, was elected President of the New York Aviation Management Association’s (NYAMA) Board of Directors at the Board’s Annual Conference this September. Since joining the board in 2012, he has served as board vice president and secretary, as well as chairman of NYAMA’s Advocacy Day, corporate relations, and awards committees.

"Jeremy's enthusiasm, leadership and effort on NYAMA’s board of directors and executive committee have been unmatched. He has taken lead roles on important issues of the day, and he has been proactive in advancing the interests of our membership," said outgoing President Mike Giardino, Director of Greater Rochester International Airport. “It is only natural that he is now president of the organization that he has worked so hard for. He is the right person to leads us in promoting the viability and business interests of New York State's airports.”

Jeremy’s involvement with NYAMA goes beyond his commitments on the board. He has testified several times on behalf of NYAMA in front of the New York State Assembly and Senate’s Joint Legislative Committee in a public hearing on the 2014-2015 Executive Budget for transportation. He advocated key initiatives to increase capital improvement funding for NYS airports as well as specific legislation for economic incentives through tax exemptions, which would benefit aviation throughout New York.

NYAMA's mission is to promote the viability and business interests of New York State's airports. NYAMA represents over 13,000 members and affiliate members, 120 commercial service and general aviation airports, fixed based operators, consultants, engineers, and aviation professionals at the state and regional levels.
