text: We also marked transitions in leadership. 
  At the end of December, Catherine Stihler 
  concluded her time as Chief Executive 
  Officer (CEO) at Creative Commons, and I 
  transitioned in as Interim. In March 2024, I 
  was appointed CC’s permanent CEO. I 
  look forward to working closely with our 
  Board of Directors, staff, and larger 
  community on**the critical work that**
  **awaits us in 2024**.
