Article-Joan

As the chair of the planning board for 18 consecutive years and a board member for 28 years, Joan Philkill attended more than 400 meetings and reviewed more than 700 rezoning applications.

Should there be a definite article (THE CHAIR) in above sentence?.. really confused..... what if I remove it ... will it change the meaning of the sentence?
