New Faces to GIS Council and OCIO

We recently conducted a 15 year NITC Celebration event this week. Many individuals involved with NITC were recognized for their efforts since it's inception. Many thanks to each of you as well for your time and commitment to the GIS Council. I also want to recognize, Elizabeth Vornbrock and Adam Brown for their efforts towards the GIS Council. They are two new faces in the OCIO office this year that have been doing some incredible things behind the scenes for us and the GIS Council. Help me say "welcome and thanks" to Elizabeth and Adam next time you see them.
