Our latest issue of the Southern California Journal pays tribute to Betty St Marie, the beloved Executive Director of the ACC Southern California (Association of Corporate Counsel) chapter for the last 16 years. Betty will be retiring at the end of this year. Words cannot express how much the SoCal chapter adores Betty, and her contributions will be felt for generations to come. Standing at what seems like 7 feet tall, Betty is often the first friendly face new members meet when coming to our events and she always makes sure that everyone feels welcomed and in a safe space. Please read more about how Betty came to join ACC SoCal and how she has positively impacted so many people. Thank you Justin Fong DANIELLE BLANCHARD Jessica Gillette Shannon Keany, CMP, PCA and Parcon for putting together this beautiful zine.

The latest issue of the ACC Southern California (Association of Corporate Counsel) Journal both made me smile and made my heart hurt just a bit. It features our Executive Director - and one of my favorite human beings - Betty St Marie, who is taking an exceptionally well-deserved retirement at the end of the year. I usually refer to Betty as a rockstar when I post about our chapter events, but that doesn't really do it justice. Hers was the first face I saw when I went to my first ACC event in 2018; her smile and warmth made me (and everyone else) feel welcome there (and at every event since). She's funny, kind, resourceful and a great problem-solver. Boy scouts have nothing on her! Betty has been a strong and steady guiding force for this chapter for the past 16 years and she will be missed. Thanks to everyone involved in creating this e-zine: DANIELLE BLANCHARD, Justin Fong, Jessica Gillette, Sara Van Dusen and Shannon Keany, CMP, PCA.
