Board Operations Transition
6/25/2026Board operations transition to a new office and management team effective June 26, 2026.
Last fall, Executive Secretary Brittany Novotny informed the Board of her plans to step down from that role this summer. Following a Request for Proposals (RFP) process, the Board awarded the management contract to Deni Martin. Brittany and her firm conclude the day-to-day management of Board operations effective June 26, 2026, and Deni Martin and her firm assume responsibility for Board management and operations at that time. The transition of Board email accounts, telephone systems, and office will take place June 26 through June 29, 2026. The Board's website and online renewal system will remain fully operational and will not be impacted.
This transition has been carefully planned and coordinated over the past nine months. The process has included extensive preparation, training, and collaboration between the current and incoming management teams to support a seamless transfer of Board operations and ensure continuity of services to licensees, registrants, and the public.
