Dr. Atilla Soran, President PTAA, was appointed as the new Northcentral Region Vice President of Assembly of Turkish American Associations (ATAA). Here is the announcement and a brief biography of Dr. Soran.
Dear All,
ATAA VP, Mr. Hakan Ilkin has resigned from his position due to his heavy work load as he is building a new business. On behalf of the board, I thank him for his help and contributions while he was with us and I look forward to his future contributions to ATAA.
For the position of Northcentral Region ATAA VP, I have appointed Dr. Atilla Soran, who also happens to be the president of PTAA, in Pittsburgh. He is a well-liked and a hard working new president who has dramatically increased the PTAA membership since his election to his position.
I look forward to working with him, and his valuable assistance to ATAA in variety of Turkish-American issues.
Sincerely,
Ercument Kilic
