► Coffee Break with Steve Thayer 

As a self-proclaimed multitasker, Steve Thayer has definitely proven his ability to juggle multiple tasks at once. Perhaps it's all the Coca-Cola and M&Ms, or maybe his two-year prep serving as DERA's President-elect and then DMAR’s Chair-elect… either way, Steve took on the role of Chair of DMAR from 2017-2018 while also running the Thayer Group with his wife, Susan, and never missed a beat.
