Sacramento Chapter

Message from Karen Yusi  Lookingbill, President

It is both an honor and a privilege to serve as your president. The board and I are fully dedicated to serving each of you and the broader API community to the best of our ability.

We will build upon the outstanding work our organization has done for the last 50 years and will continue to focus on fostering the future generation of leaders in state service. To achieve this, our priorities will focus on supporting your career advancement, building strong connections within our professional network, and deepening our community engagement.  Together, we can create opportunities for professional growth as well as advancing our mission.

I am eager to execute our plan to accomplish these goals, and I encourage you to reach out to me with your ideas and feedback. Your input and your active participation are key components to our success. When we work together and collaborate with one another, anything is possible.

Let’s move onward and upward APSEA! I am looking forward to a productive year ahead, filled with growth and fresh opportunities for us all.
