I want to take this opportunity to thank Chelle for the outstanding efforts and leadership that she has provided to the IBEX team over the past more than a decade! We will sorely miss her contributions to the mission as she steps down as the IBEX Mission Operations Manager (MOM).
At the same time, I am delighted to announce that effective June 8, Nigel Angold will be stepping in as the new IBEX MOM. Nigel has also been with the mission for many years, has served as the Deputy MOM, and has stepped in as acting MOM when Chelle was not available. I have every confidence that Nigel will do a great job for IBEX and thank him for stepping up and taking on this key role.
Thanks and all the best,
Dave
