Welcome Jeney Wierman – New MacCHESS Director

Jeney Wierman started as the new MacCHESS Director on July 1st, 2022.  Below is a welcome message to the whole CHESS Community. 

Jeney takes over the MacCHESS directorship from Marian Szebenyi, who will be retiring later this year after 30 years at MacCHESS.

Dear CHESS Community,

It is (hopefully) no secret that I hold a very special place in my heart for CHESS, the people working here, and the community it supports. With that, I am honored and delighted to join CHESS this summer as Director of MacCHESS! First, I must thank Marian Szebenyi for continuing to work with me into the fall startup – I have large shoes to fill and appreciate the overlap support. Second, I would also like to thank all who were a part of the hiring process over the past few months, plus onboarding over the last week. Much appreciated.

It is thrilling to return to the CHESS family! The ingenuity and tenacity of the CHESS spirit (the can-do attitude) speak volumes of its brilliant people.
