  • Board & Investor Relations: Prepare materials for board meetings and investor updates, emphasizing progress, strategy, and the company's mission.

  • Skills:
  • Expertise in project management and complex data analysis.
  • Exceptional communication skills with the ability to effectively represent the company's mission to various stakeholders.
