I look forward to collaborating with the NEEBC community, the board, and other key stakeholders to continue advancing NEEBC’s efforts.”

“I am thrilled about NEEBC’s new president and board members. Having had the opportunity to work with each of them, either in my current position and/or prior role leading Human Resources at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, I know firsthand the unique perspective, expertise and energy these individuals bring to the board,” said Robin Antonellis, executive director of NEEBC. “With their addition, NEEBC has gained deeply strategic and highly knowledgeable business-driven leaders from a wide range of industries and organizations, including those with under 2,000 employees, which is a prioritized market segment for 2022 and beyond. I’m eager for the NEEBC community to benefit from their new roles and enthusiastically welcome them to the board.”
