LAA BIDS FAREWELL TO DR. PAM BROWN Dear LAA friends,
I have enjoyed the past eight months immensely but regret to inform you that I have resigned my position as Executive Director of Leadership Anne Arundel. I’ve had many wonderful opportunities to meet and work with people I consider to be true community trustees and have formed a number of enduring friendships that I dearly value. I have made Anne Arundel County my home and look forward to continuing to build these relationships for the betterment of our community.
I wish you and Leadership Anne Arundel the very best in the future and I hope we will stay in touch.
Sincerely,
Dr. Pam Brown
The Board of Directors of Leadership Anne Arundel is very appreciative of the work Pam Brown has done for us over the last eight months. While her departure will leave a void, the extremely capable staff of Alli Holstrom and Hannah Collord will continue to ensure that programs and services are provided without interruption.
LAA is working on a transition plan and will continue to keep everyone informed. We wish Pam well in her future endeavors and appreciate the work she has done on our behalf. We know she will remain a supporter of leadership programs and we thank her.
Sincerely,
Maura Walden
Incoming President of the Board of Directors
