While it is bittersweet to move on, it is deeply reassuring to know that I am leaving MTech in such capable hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please join me in welcoming and congratulating our new leadership lineup, which is effective October 1:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Aubrey Morse<\/strong>, from ARC, is taking over as our Leader. Aubrey has been deeply involved in MTech for many years and has served as our Chair for the past two years. Aubrey will be supported by Mashon Allen, Chief of Staff for ITS.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Kenny Moore<\/strong>, from ITS, is officially beginning his term as MTech Chair a few months ahead of schedule. Kenny brings fantastic experience to the role, having served as Vice Chair for nearly two years and as the long-time co-chair of Hacks with Friends.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rose Moya<\/strong>, from Engineering, is rounding out the leadership team by taking over as our new Vice Chair. Rose previously served as the chair of the Workforce Committee, where she helped manage MTech\u2019s Mentor Program.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please take a moment to congratulate Aubrey, Kenny, Rose, and Mashon when you see them next!
