Current chair. See Leadership above.
To every chair who has served since 2004, and to the teams who stood beside them, thank you. You carried our culture forward, marked the days that mattered for those who would come after, welcomed every newcomer, and taught us what you knew. You still do. From the bottom of our hearts, we are grateful.
