Congrats to Karen!

Brian sent along this exciting news today:

I wanted to give you all a sneak peak at the announcement of Karen’s promotion (below).  Official word will go out in tomorrow’s weekly email blast (which, appropriately enough, Karen has taken over responsibility of). I have seen it first hand, she is revolutionizing the organization – and this is a well deserved shout out for all her efforts.

Please join us in sharing heart-felt congratulations to Karen Dahl for her well deserved promotion to Operations Manager! Karen's impact has been felt by each of us throughout Jumpstart. Her contributions to date through projects such as the Organizational Priorities and Planning, far exceed our earlier attempts to further this work without her. She is exceptionally dedicated to her work, and shows us every day the tremendous aptitude and passion she has for addressing the operational needs of the organization. We are confident that Karen will help us steer Jumpstart down the important path of infrastructure capacity building and stability. Congratulations Karen! And thanks for all you do!

Yay! Go Karen! I hope this means you'll still be able to come out and start up a San Jose chapter of Jump Start -- or at least come and visit the San Fran folks which is close enough to meet up with you.
