During his time at CMC, the company has seen significant improvements to our networks and customer service and he will remain available to help CMC and Marisa during the transition. I now look forward to working with Marisa as we continue to grow and expand the business. Marisa brings deep industry knowledge and a wealth of experience to CMC. I look forward to working closely with Marisa in settling into her new role as CEO.”
