You have every right to be very proud of your long service to the international geodetic community. We will all miss you as you transition into retirement.

Dear Colleagues,

After 39 years of government service at NASA, I will begin a period of phased retirement on February 02, 2020, working part-time as my duties are transitioned to others. Therefore, as of February 01, I will hand over management of the CDDIS to Pat Michael, our current, experienced, and very capable, CDDIS Deputy Manager. I am confident that Pat will effectively lead CDDIS and work to maintain its excellent reputation in the national and international community as NASAs archive of space geodetic data and products. Although I am not quite saying goodbye as I will continue working part-time at NASA for the next year, Pat will oversee CDDIS activities; please reach out to him and our support staff (support-cddis@earthdata.nasa.gov) with your questions.

For the near-term, I plan to continue my work within the international community, particularly with the ILRS Central Bureau and the IGS data center activities, and will transition those responsibilities to colleagues over the next year.
