Good Morning All,
I spoke to Ryan on Sunday afternoon and we discussed my sending you, Liz and James,
names of individuals who I expect would make supportive statements of my appointment to
Region 1 RA. I am still awaiting my letter from Ryan making the offer official so that I can
notify ECOS leadership. Let me know how you might proceed to reach out to people so that
if needed I can give them the appropriate heads up beforehand. I put a New England focus
on my selections. I look forward to working with you all.
Regards, Alex
