The AAPG Women's Network (formerly PROWESS) is excited to kick off the new AAPG fiscal year with a new leadership team and some new initiatives. We sincerely thank Terra George of EOG Resources and Amanda Haddad of BHP for their service and dedication to the AAPGWN over the last few years. The impact of their efforts and contributions to increasing the visibility of the AAPGWN to the greater AAPG and geoscience communities has been immeasurable. Terra and Amanda will transition to the role of past chairs and continue to serve the AAPGWN and greater AAPG community. Nicole Wagoner (consultant) and Rachelle Kernen of the Australian School of Petroleum and Natural Resources have stepped in as the new co-chairs, along with Chioma Onwumelu of the University of North Dakota serving as secretary, Andrea Lopez Vega of Total as treasurer liaison, and Amanda Pascali (recent geology graduate) as publicity director. We would also like to thank Lee Avary (consultant) and Stephanie Nwoko of Premier Oilfield Group for their continuing service to the AAPGWN. The new leadership team is looking forward to serving the AAPGWN and working with the new Executive Committee and AAPG to promote the advancement of women in geosciences and lessening the challenges that women face in the workplace, particularly in the sciences.
