SEGD is pleased to welcome Elizabeth Griswold as the SEGD Special Projects Director. In this new full-time role, Liz will provide critical communications, management, and logistical support to the organization. This role is essential for leading and executing initiatives and milestones as we look towards SEGD’s 50th anniversary in Summer 2023, and future SEGD initiatives.
