[All_staff] Message from Mike Maier: Public Affairs Manager

[Pat Stroop]

All Staff,

Jefferson Lab’s Public Affairs Manager, John Warren, is moving on to new 
opportunities. His last day at the lab is June 15. The lab community is 
grateful for the perspective and experience he shared during his tenure 
as Public Affairs manager, and we wish him well as he pursues a new 
chapter in his life and career.

John brought new initiatives to the Jefferson Lab Public Affairs 
program, as the lab observed significant 12 GeV Upgrade milestones and 
began 12 GeV operations. He worked to bring Governor Terry McAuliffe to 
the lab to address lab staff and users at a celebration marking 
Department of Energy approval to re-start operations for the CEBAF 
accelerator, helped facilitate an event hosted by the City of Newport 
News to familiarize city officials with the lab, and coordinated 
communications and outreach efforts for the sixth International Particle 
Accelerator Conference. Most recently, John and his team led the 
coordination of the April 30 Open House – an outstanding event that 
shared the lab’s capabilities and science program with a record-breaking 
attendance of 12,000.

The lab is initiating a search for a new Public Affairs manager. The 
search committee is being formed and the position will soon be 
announced. Until this position is filled, Kandice Carter has agreed to 
serve as acting manager. This will be effective today, June 15. Kandice 
has served as the lab's science writer for 12 years and has been an 
integral member of the Public Affairs staff.

Please give Kandice and her team your support during the search and 
transition process.

- Mike Maier
