Glen Wood said the following regarding Kristin’s promotion “From the time I interviewed Kristin I knew she would be going places, and I was not wrong.  She has taken the bull by the horns in every position she has had over the years. If she did not know something she would dig into it on her own and would then know everything about it. I loved going to meetings with her and the looks from people that she doesn’t know anything or what she’s talking about. I would let her go and they would soon find out they were greatly mistaken! I would just sit back and enjoy. The people that had their doubts came to me and said this lady knows her stuff and some of them have turned into her biggest fans. Needless to say, I am so very proud of her, and she will do a great job moving forward and I will support her any way she needs me to. Her seceding means more to me than anyone can imagine!”


Kevin Palmer, President commented “I am thrilled to announce that Kristin Walbert has been promoted into role of President of the Fruitland, MD office.  Kristin brings a wealth of energy, a unique leadership perspective and background to our organization, and we are excited to have her on board. Kristin, in conjunction with Glenn Wood, has demonstrated a remarkable ability to drive excellence, foster communication, and build a strong collaborative team. Her skill sets make her the perfect fit to lead Fruitland into its next phase of development and success.  The two of their combined efforts over the course of the past several years have led to a seamless succession event. I have no doubt that her leadership will drive great results. Please join me in welcoming Kristin into the new role, and to thank Glenn Wood for his many years of service, as he is moving into a scaled back role in the operation.”


Glen Wood will be continuing with the location in the role of VP of Operations.
