<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calisto MT","serif"">Hello, I hope my correspondence finds you doing well. I write to inform you that I have submitted my resignation from my position as Senior Coordinator of Academic Affairs,
<b>effective April 1, 2016 (<span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow">my last day in the office will be Wednesday, March 30<sup>th</sup></span>)</b>. Over the course of the next few weeks a transition plan will be developed, but please note business
will be as usual and I will continue to be responsive as I have in the past and will work with Daniel on projects that develop between now and the end of March. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calisto MT","serif"">I have thoroughly enjoyed my time with the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education (OSRHE) over the last six years and I could not have asked for a better group of colleagues
with which to have worked. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to work with an agency that has such a strong commitment to higher education and the students it serves. Moreover, I am happy to have had the opportunity to contribute to state system initiatives
and policies designed to advance our colleges and universities and the students they serve. Lastly, I will be forever appreciative of the experiences and, most importantly, the friendships that I have gained during my time with OSRHE and the state system.
