Hello Sustainability Leaders,

I am writing with some news from the Peer Networks team.

I recently accepted a job with a local college I have long admired in their advancement office. Therefore, my last day at BuildingGreen will be Fri. Feb. 11th.

Working with you all these past four and a half years has been such an opportunity to learn how the building industry can impact the communities within which building projects take place, for better or worse. And it has been a pleasure and an honor to connect with you all in the Peer Networks to see just how many opportunities this industry has to build for the better. I cannot wait to see where this strong group of leaders nudges the needle next and I’ll be rooting for all you movers, shakers, and change makers in those efforts! I am happy to keep in touch, feel free to reach out on LinkedIn or my personal email, roseann.grimes@gmail.com.

If you have any questions before Feb. 11th, I am happy to connect. Otherwise, Jen is your key Peer Networks contact here at BuildingGreen moving forward or reach out to your specific network's primary facilitator.

All my best and so much gratitude,

RoseAnn
