Farewell & the Journey Ahead

Torch

When I became President in 2017, I saw potential. I saw a community yearning to be connected, a diversity of topics waiting to be explored, and an untapped membership of people just like you willing to contribute their many talents.

We kicked off 2017 with a complete reboot: a name change, fresh logo, website and community outreach effort. You responded. Our inaugural meeting on fleet management security filled the room!

Over the next two years we would host guests from across the DFW area, presenting on a diversity of topics from FAIR to GDPR to counterintelligence. New partnerships were formed with organizations like the Dallas Hackers Association and Tarleton University. Our Contributor Coin program was widely praised, with other ISSA Chapters contacting me to learn more about it. I could go on and on.

None of this would have been possible without you.

Now, as I pass the torch to Derek Boyd, our new President, I sense that same spirit of optimism in him. I see a spark ready to ignite, and I have no doubt that he will lead us into a prosperous 2019.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for joining me on such a wonderful journey. We haven’t reached the end yet. The future is bright as ever.

Yours in security,
Michael Starks
Past President of ISSA Fort Worth Chapter
