Hi Greg, As you know, I'm excited for your new position and the great impact you're going to have there! Like Titus I can't express enough the gratitude I have for all that you've done and built, but mostly that you've created a community that so many of us can think of as home.
All the best wishes for your next job! They are so fortunate to have you on their team, and we're glad that you're going to continue to be a part of the Carpentries too.
