We’re excited to announce Belinda Weaver has accepted our offer to become
the Software and Data Community Development Lead. Belinda will join the
Carpentries staff later this month, please give her a warm and enthusiastic
community welcome!

Many of you may already know of Belinda from her work all over the
community as a Software Carpentry Steering Committee Member, the Mentorship
Subcommittee, the Trainers Subcommittee and a champion and leader of
Library Carpentry. As part of our bylaws Belinda will be stepping down from
the Software Carpentry Steering Committee on Friday June 16th and the
Committee will finish the 2017 term with a membership of 6. For those of
you who don’t know her yet, look for her introductory blog post later
today. In short, Belinda is a very active community member and a delight to
work with, we’re incredibly excited to have her contributing to our
community full-time very soon!

We want to thank everyone who participated in the conversations about how
we created this staff position, the global search process, and helped with
community member interviews. It is always encouraging to see such a vibrant
and thoughtful community as we think carefully about how to grow our impact
around the world.

Belinda will officially begin in the new role on June 19th, 2017 and will
be joining us as a full-time staff member. You can reach her at:
