On September 17, U.S. President Obama announced his intent to nominate Dr. Bella Dinh-Zarr as a member of the National Transportation Safety Board. Dr. Bella Dinh-Zarr is currently the Director of the FIA Foundation’s U.S. office. She served as FIA Foundation’s Road Safety Director from 2007 to 2014 and previously as Director of North America’s Make Roads Safe Campaign for Global Road Safety from 2006 to 2007.

Obama praised Dinh-Zarr, along with six other intended nominees to several administration posts. “These men and women have demonstrated knowledge and dedication throughout their careers,” Obama said in a press release. “I am grateful they have chosen to take on these important roles, and I look forward to working with them in the months and years to come.”
