Hi Jacklynn,
Congratulations on your new role with FirstHealth of the Carolinas. Though I graduated six years before you, it is always gratifying to read about the professional successes of my fellow IWU graduates. As a former U.S. Marine Corps officer, I am often thanked for my service. Well let me do likewise and thank you and your colleagues for all you did as we confronted the pandemic of the past 16+ months. I wish you the very best in this new role and hope you and your family have a wonderful summer.
Best Regards,
Michael Mason
