This award recognizes the efforts of outstanding young procurement professionals who made great strides and contributions to the education procurement industry. The award was presented at a ceremony held during the association’s 2019 Annual Meeting in Kansas City, Mo.
Leckerling was nominated by a number of her colleagues in the state of Florida. She was an instrumental committee member for the NAEP Florida Regional meeting in Daytona this year, helping to plan the agenda, book the keynote speakers, develop talking points for the new attendee orientation and plan the morning activities. In her nomination letter, her colleagues stated that Leckerling “is a huge asset to NAEP Florida and is very deserving of this award and recognition.”
