Linda Markley
2025 Recipient
The SCOLT Board of Directors presents the Founders Award when deemed appropriate to a member who has made significant contributions to SCOLT over the years and who exemplifies the spirit and ideals of the founders of the organization.
It is with great pleasure, humility and honor that I accept this Founder’s Award for SCOLT 2025.
SCOLT has always had such a huge piece of my professional heart, and I can’t even express in words (no matter the language!) my profound gratitude. SCOLT will always be family to me!
