Dear friends and colleagues,
On behalf of the Board of Directors and the Search Committee, I’m excited to welcome David G. Clower as NTCIC’s newest President and CEO. This appointment comes at a pivotal moment as we approach our 25th anniversary, a time of both reflection on our past achievements and anticipation for the future.
David’s dedication to community service and his alignment with our organizational values were standout qualities during our comprehensive year-long search. As Terrian Barnes, Chair of the Search Committee, aptly noted, “David’s in-depth industry experience, as well as his understanding and respect for NTCIC’s successful history, position him as the perfect leader to drive our mission forward. We are confident that under David’s leadership, NTCIC will continue to reach impressive milestones and broaden its influence on communities nationwide.”
On behalf of the board and staff of NTCIC, I want to also extend our deepest gratitude to Suzanne Brown for her exceptional leadership as our Interim President and CEO during this transitional year. Since joining NTCIC in 2009, Suzanne has been an indispensable member of the team, most recently serving as our Managing Director, Finance & Administration. Her dedication and expertise have been instrumental in steering our organization through this period of transition.
As we welcome David Clower as our new President and CEO, we are equally thrilled to announce Suzanne’s well-deserved promotion to Chief Operating Officer. Her continued leadership and vision will undoubtedly be pivotal in NTCIC’s ongoing success and growth.
As we celebrate these exciting changes, I reflect with pride on the path NTCIC has traveled over the past 25 years. Our success in financing over 200 impactful investments and our ongoing advocacy for tax credit programs are a testament to the strength and dedication of our team. Under David’s leadership, we look forward to continuing this legacy of revitalizing communities, preserving our heritage, and fostering sustainable development across the nation.
Thank you for your continued support as we embark on this new chapter. Together, with David Clower and Suzanne Brown in their respective new roles, we are poised for even greater achievements in the years to come.
Warm regards,
Lauri Michel
BOARD CHAIR, NTCIC
