Stacy Syring, Secretary
We are thrilled to have Stacy Syring on the Board of Directors for OAI!
For the past 8 years, Stacy has been growing her career in the Information Technology industry as a Senior Software Consultant for CGI. Not only has her position taught her about the ever changing industry, but she has learned about leadership and different skills to use when leading a team in an ever changing environment.
Stacy brings strong organizational skills, creative thinking, and a drive for growth to this organization. When she's not volunteering her time with OAI, you can find her curled up with a great book and spending time with her rescue pup and cats!
Royce James was born and raised in Spring, Texas. He has been in the construction industry since he was16 years old. Royce and his wife Tina started Royce James Construction, Inc. in 1994.
With Royce’s background in construction and his business management skills, he is a huge asset to OAI.
Most people that know Royce, know that he has a huge heart and desire to help others. When Royce is not working, he's spending time with family and friends, and cooking some of the most delicious meats you will ever eat.
