Last week, I had the honor of attending the Aluminum Association annual meeting in DC. The agenda was packed with engaging panels that covered a wide range of topics, from policy to sustainability to economic outlook. In addition to the valuable networking and education on current and future aluminum conditions, I was officially handed the gavel as the new Chair of the Associate Member Committee. I am filled with anticipation and enthusiasm as I take on this role, and I am eager to lead many exciting initiatives in the future.
