I am pleased to announce the promotion of Grant Cox to the position of Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer.
In 2011, we launched a major growth initiative, during which the number of employees in our home office has more than doubled, and our year-over-year growth rate as a firm has consistently exceeded 30%. Grant joined our firm at the beginning of that initiative five years ago, and has played a key role on the team I have tasked with driving that growth.
