Ms. Shean-Snowden is also a past president of the Western Pallet Association’s Board of Directors.

“The PLA family of companies deeply values the work of the NWPCA on behalf of our industry,” said Kyle Otting, CEO of PLA. “Lindsey is the perfect fit given her history in the industry and the work she has done as part of various NWPCA committees. We’re proud of LindseyR#8217;s appointment to the Board and the expansion of our company’s industry leadership.”
