The GALA Board of Directors is composed of volunteer members who are elected by the GALA membership to serve for two-year terms to the benefit of the industry as a whole. The members of GALA have elected five new directors to begin in 2013.

As a member of management, she is responsible for the company's sales, marketing and account management strategies. Prior to joining Xplanation, Véronique held senior management roles at Moravia, Lionbridge and Stream International.
