This week we reflect on the career of Deputy Director Michael May. We are sad to see him go but enjoyed having him on the show to reflect on his career with the TWRA. As the Director of Business Operations, he was involved with big changes in technology and structure, which have made a huge impact on where we are today. We wish him the best as life takes him on another journey.
