Seven years ago I decided it was time to get some help on AMP. We were starting to grow, and our expansive ideas were more than I could handle, leaning mainly on family members to help me carry out my dreams.

Amy and I were already working together from her position as head of the NWCT Arts Council. She was ready for a change, and accepted my offer to be AMP's first executive director.

Now we are at the next juncture in our growth and all those big ideas have multiplied and Amy is ready for the next chapter in her career.

I am a big believer in serendipitous things happening in life, not necessarily planned but obvious when they come up. That was certainly the case when Amy Wynn joined the AMP. The work she has accomplished, the hours of overtime she has logged, the mountains we have climbed together since that moment are many and miraculous.

First, I am excited for what is next for Amy and grateful for every moment she has invested in her work at AMP. As sad as I am to see her leave, I feel we are at another one of those moments, moving to the next chapter of our story. I am filled with anticipation and excitement for all that is ahead, knowing Amy will always be in the wings, ready to assist when we need her help and advice.

Much love, Amy, and forever, thanks.
