Vice President:
Ryan Louie O. Manuel
I'm truly honored to run for Vice President of FBANC 46. I am dedicated to listening carefully, engaging sincerely, and taking actions that genuinely benefit our members and the communities we serve. My goal is to be a Vice President who not only advocates for everyone but also truly represents you. I want to make sure that the voices of our members, advisory leaders, and Filipino American legal professionals are heard, valued, and reflected in FBANC’s future direction.
I currently serve as FBANC 45 Treasurer, where I focus on enhancing FBANC’s financial management, supporting sustainable programs, and ensuring resources align with our mission. My past leadership roles within FBANC—such as mentorship, social programming, and serving as Secretary on the executive board—have provided me with practical insights into how our organization functions and how we can continue to grow intentionally.
As Vice President, I will work closely with our President, President-Elect, and the Board to support FBANC’s strategic goals while increasing our presence at community events and with partner organizations. I am dedicated to engaging more intentionally with the communities and members we serve—listening, learning, and making sure our programs meet your changing needs. I will also focus on helping Directors activate their committees, encourage meaningful member involvement, and identify and uplift future leaders within FBANC.
In my professional role as an Associate at Lewis Brisbois Bisgaard & Smith LLP, I navigate complex matters that demand strategic thinking, collaboration, and decisive action—skills I will bring to this role in service of FBANC.
FBANC has significantly contributed to my personal and professional growth as an attorney, and I am dedicated to helping it continue as a platform for mentorship, advocacy, and leadership.
I would be honored to earn your support.
Maraming salamat po.
