Off to the ATL We Go!

Today marks a bittersweet time for our Altair family. We are saying goodbye to some of our colleagues as they travel down to open an expansion office in Atlanta, GA. We are so happy for them on their new adventure. We will also miss them in their absence.

Elizabeth Brennan has been with Altair since September of 2013. She was promoted to our Executive Team Leader position in October of 2014. She has developed many of her colleagues into the leaders they are now during her time at Altair. We are excited to see what amazing things this new opportunity holds for her.

Ryan Ruiz has been with Altair since September of 2013 as well. He's our resident talker (and by talker I mean it's a GREAT day if he says more than three words). I can see amazing opportunities in his future with this company.

Elicia Johnston started with Altair April 1st, 2014. She has such a lovely personality and an infectious laugh that will be missed in her absence. Her consistent performance has earned her a wildcard spot at our Top Performers Retreat in the Bahamas coming up in April.

Grant Viekman is on of the newest members of our Altair family, starting in August of 2014. It has been amazing fun watching Grant grow into a leader and entrepreneur while he's been with us. He also has the prettiest hair I've ever seen. He will be joining other members of our Altair family in a few weeks aboard a cruise ship in the Bahamas for some fun in the sun. Grant has also been proving his potential as a business owner over the last few months.

Jaron Watkins started out in our Ann Arbor office and transferred to our Grand Rapids office back in September. He has recently proven to be a top performer within the office and has been invited on our all expenses paid trip to the Bahamas. Jaron also holds many of the sales records we have standing in the office currently. It only goes to prove Jaron's will to succeed within our business. Because of this, I know we will see great things from him.

In our business, we spend so much time together as a group. We've all built relationships on both a personal and professional level. It's not that we'll never see you again. We will be seeing you in the near future at our Top Performers Retreat in the Bahamas and again at our company conference in June. But we won't see your faces every morning around the office. We won't see your posts to the team in our group text. We won't get to sit down with you and ask you how your weekend went or see you at events outside of the office. We will definitely be visiting you in your new, warm and sunny location in Atlanta.

Take the skills you have learned here and pass them onto others in your new location! You will be greatly missed. But this isn't goodbye, it's see you later.
