<p class="MsoNormal">That’s right! Starting today (1/3/17) Shellie Whitaker has agreed to join Wade as a member of the WACTCLC support team. Shellie is a perfect fit to help smooth our transition to ALMA and to help us as we develop the new consortium.

<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
To say I’m thrilled to have her join the project would be a HUGE understatement. Like many of you, I’ve worked with Shellie for a LONG time as the ORCA Consortium’s System Coordinator. Her knowledge of our current systems and, frankly, us, makes her a valuable
addition. <br>
<br>
She will be splitting her time between ORCA and WACTCLC, but let’s be honest, you won’t be able to see her switching hats.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please welcome Shellie to the team!<u></u><u></u></p>
