Rowden has served as the association’s interim executive since November 2008.
‘For the past seven months, Rowden’s work to move forward the international trade community’s trade facilitation agenda has included implementation of the Importer Security Filing Interim Rule (also known as “10+2”), AAEI’s globalization efforts, and the withdrawal of the proposed uniform Rules of Origin regulation,’ AAEI said in a statement. ‘Her legislative outreach efforts include instrumental advocacy for balance between trade facilitation and security in the Customs Reauthorization Bill and product safety legislation. Rowden has provided her expertise on ISF to trade professionals in Hong Kong and Tokyo, and will speak in Austria next week.’
