During the year, Roberts recognized existing team career growth as well, implementing several leadership team promotions including Richard Knowles from Controller to Vice President of Finance, Chad Probst from Director to Vice President of Sales, and Jennifer Ainsworth from Specialist to Human Resources Manager.
