He has an inspiring personal story that guides his work as a leader and businessman. There was no hesitation when he asked me to join the S3 board. It has been a pleasure to serve on the S3 board of advisors in support of Rod, the management team and other advisors. Rod has built a highly successful company with incredible potential. I am honored to move into the role of board chair with the opportunity to work more closely with Rod and the S3 team.”
