TLMI Converter of the Year

Bankson first joined the TLMI in 1992. He served on the board of directors in 1998-99, chaired the converters' meeting at Spanish Bay that same year, and is now vice president. "John is very committed to TLMI," says Sablone. "He understands what it takes to get a job done." Bankson has also shown leadership in establishing relationships, going out of his way to meet new TLMI members and introducing them to others.
