Welcome Patrick Ward! Patrick joins the Cova team as a Technical Program Coordinator, providing leadership on development and implementation of Cova's programs. Patrick's relationship with Cova began many years ago when he participated in one of Cova's early student impact programs while an undergrad in Mechanical Engineering at Iowa State University, and later as a summer fellow during his time working on his Masters in Global Engineering with the Mortenson Center at the University of Colorado Boulder. Patrick brings to our team considerable experience in the sustainable development space globally, and we are excited to have him join us. Welcome, Patrick!
