This year has already been an exciting one for economic development in #WestVirginia. We’re witnessing a strategic intersection as #entrepreneurism, #remotework and “rural as the new urban” connect West Virginia to create a favorable economic environment. https://t.co/wmH2xnDX1Q

Those words beautifully capture this moment as I prepare to step down as Executive Chairman of @Intuit's Board of Directors, and continue serve as a non-executive director. It's time to continue my journey by serving as the 38th President of @marshallU in my home state of WV
