    Thanks for providing notes, Dan. That is so helpful. 

    I also was so glad to see Tommy Tran and Elena Zhang come to our first meeting to express their interest in our open roles: Vice Chair and Program Vice Chair. It was so nice to hear their background and what propelled them to the Sustainability Technical Group. Their contributions to what ended up being a very fruitful discussion was highly appreciated. 

    If that is the caliber of candidates we are getting for the next year, I look forward to hearing from others that are interested. Nominations, including self-nominations may be submitted here https://hfes.formstack.com/forms/stg_nominations until Monday Feb. 10, 2025.

    Shraddha Swaroop

    Chair, Sustainability Technical Group
