Without giving too much away, let’s just say...there are some exciting implementations on the horizon! Okay, I won't give too much away, but I'll say...I may not be the only one working on the team soon! Some wonderful volunteers might be joining me to bring you even more amazing content!

It’s all I needed to refocus and bring you the best stories of people doing amazing things from everywhere around the world! What have I missed?...
