As we sent our October issue to the printer, we had just come from a very successful—albeit exhausting—PACK EXPO Las Vegas。在印刷页面上，十月是我首次露面作为主编Profood世界。But in terms of meeting the industry’s movers and shakers, PACK EXPO was certainly my public debut.
I’m thrilled with how forthcoming, helpful, and friendly everybody was who I met along the way.
成员OPX领导网络足够亲切，让我坐在他们的执行理事会会议上，并加入他们在晚餐中进行对话。聆听他们最紧迫的担忧和痛苦点的机会阐明了我可能从未听说过的观点。
同样在演出期间，我们在PMMI Media Group的编辑团队曾与我们的几位杂志编辑顾问会面。值得注意的是，顾问Profood世界showed up in considerably higher numbers. I don’t know if that’s more a testament to this industry or to the kind of respect and trust my predecessor, Joyce Fassl, has developed over the years. Either way, several of them let me know that they were at my beck and call just as they have been for Joyce.

I come into this role with a solid background in trade publishing—30 years covering manufacturing technologies in a wide range of industries. But to say I have much to learn in this industry is an understatement. I am stepping into the shoes of somebody who has so far devoted 35 years to knowing and understanding this market, its technologies, its processes—and the people that make all of it work.

Joyce will continue to be an instrumental part of this publication. Though she’s chosen to scale back her workload, she’s not going anywhere, and for that I am grateful.
我感谢我可能从行业和读者那里学到的一切。我期待与大家合作！
