I am David Nomicos, NCSP with ten years experience in the field. I’m honored to be your candidate for the Director at Large position with NVASP. I am passionate about connecting resources with our professionals working in the rural communities. I know what it’s like to take on more responsibilities with less staff, time, and access to mentors. I’ve spent the last 8 years building connections with universities and agencies to provide field supervision opportunities for up and coming school psychologists as well as connecting families with much needed services in northern Nevada. I have experience serving on the NVASP board in the past and if elected, will be able to quickly get to work advocating for rural school psychs on the platform of connecting our geographically isolated members with professional development opportunities and resources to confidently meet the unique needs of their communities.
