THANK YOU FOR JOINING US AT OUR FAMILIA MEETING |
This past Monday, we held our first Familia Meeting and it was a blast! We took some time to get to know our new Board Chair, Fernando Paz, and find out more about his leadership style and hopes for SHPE's future. Thanks to all who asked such great questions! And if you missed it, never fear! We've archived it on our website, and you can watch anytime.
