After deep consideration, and input from many trusted members of the VATSIM community, it is with some sadness, and also pride, that I announce my resignation from the position of the VATCAN Division Director.
While in this position, I learned quickly that there are waves to this job. You can have a month with nothing, and then a week with hundreds of emails flooding your inbox. Unfortunately, sometimes, real life took a priority, and I am confident that the requirements to this position will outweigh the time I have available to dedicate to the position.
With that being said - I am also excited to details my plans for my future within the division. For the time being, I intend to fill the still open Winnipeg FIR Chief position, on an interim basis. I was a part of this FIR for quite some time in the past, and I am excited to return to the FIR, where I believe I will have more time to manage the job with my current availability.
To those who continued to support myself and my team while I was in my position, I can never thank you enough - your kindness, generosity and thoughtfulness was, and is appreciated.
To the staff of VATCAN - the Executive Team, FIR Staff, and the CANHelp team - you are what keeps this division moving. Your ideas, creativity and hard work continues to inspire and motivate me. I continue to look forward to working with all of you in harmony moving forward.
This division, and the amazing people in it, have done so much for me in the nearly half a decade I have been a part of this community - and I can hardly wait to see what the future holds for VATCAN.
In the meantime, Travis Chan, formerly the VATCAN Deputy Division Director, will take on the VATCAN1 position on an interim basis.
