Thank you Melanie for starting the business meeting. Thank you for your
service.
As outgoing LA, I would like to say that it has been a priviledge to serve
ASP in this capacity. Anyone who might have questions about this position, I
would be happy to share my experience. It is an amazing learning and growing
position.
Hugs,
Denise
