Once a Fellow, Always a Fellow

About the Fellows Program

Established in 2013, the SIM DFW Fellows Program recognizes distinguished members of the technology community whose leadership, experience, and service have made a lasting impact on SIM and the broader profession.

Fellows represent a select cross-section of the SIM DFW community, including technology practitioners, academics, business partners, and senior technology consultants. Throughout their careers, these individuals have demonstrated exceptional involvement within their profession, their industries, and SIM—giving their time, expertise, and leadership to colleagues at both the chapter and national levels.

Collectively, SIM DFW Fellows bring decades of experience and lessons learned. They continue to strengthen our community by sharing their knowledge, mentoring others, and offering the perspective and insight gained throughout their careers.

Selection as a SIM DFW Fellow is a lasting distinction that recognizes both professional achievement and a commitment to the SIM community.
