It's nice to be back. In fact I was never very far away but just busy with other things. I hope 9 months it's not such a long time and there are still some of you who remember me. I worked in YEE office for 5 years and then I made a short break. Here you can ready my goodbye article.

I became a mum so I had to focus on my small girl. But now I am ready to start helping YEE again. I am glad to start a new work of a consultant – help the board, office and you with projects and publications. I hope I will manage to advice, support, cooperate, create, inspire – so all that I like doing in YEE.

I won't be able to attend the Annual Meeting but I hope you are all getting ready for this meeting and feel excited.
