Perry, currently a member of Crow Canyon\u2019s Board of Trustees, replaces Deborah Gangloff, Ph. D., who plans to retire on Oct. 31 after eight successful years at the helm, according to a news release from Jason Vaughn, of Crow Canyon.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am honored to serve as the president and CEO of this extraordinary organization,\u201d said Perry. \u201cThe research, education, and partnership building being done at Crow Canyon is transformational in the world, and I am proud to have this chance to work alongside our world-class talent to realize our greatest impact, now and in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

Perry, who first joined Crow Canyon as an intern while completing her undergraduate degree from Arizona State University in 1995, received her doctorate in anthropology from the University of Arizona in 2004. She previously worked with SWCA Environmental Consultants starting in 2002, eventually becoming vice president, Pacific West, and overseeing about $40 million in revenue and 350 employees.<\/p>\n

In 2014, she left SWCA to become the CEO of Koniag Inc., an Alaska Native corporation with 700 employees nationwide and nearly 4,000 predominantly Alaska Native shareholders. At Koniag, she helped to steer the $270 million corporation through a financial turnaround to four consecutive years of earnings growth.<\/p>\n

Perry joined the Crow Canyon Board of Trustees in 2016.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am deeply inspired by the work done by Crow Canyon \u2014 scientific and educational work that also embraces social responsibility and the important contributions of different voices,\u201d said Perry. \u201cCrow Canyon\u2019s mission to make the human past accessible and relevant is cutting edge in terms of science and technology and its social impact. Everyone benefits from having a nuanced and knowledgeable understanding of humanity to carry with us in our own personal missions to transform, to innovate and to improve the world.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
