Board votes to fill vacancy at next election
Carl Youngblood co-founded the MTA in 2006 and has served since 2021 as its President and CEO. He is engaged with the Association’s efforts to explore the intersection of Mormon theology and transhumanist philosophy. ¶ Among the many initiatives that Carl has been involved with, he has designed and built the Association's current website, which unifies all prior content in a single location using inspiring visuals and animations.
In response to the resignation of Roselle Stevenson, the MTA Board has opted to wait until next year’s annual election to fill the recent vacancy on the board. Rather than holding a by-election, we believe waiting until the annual election will give potential candidates ample time to prepare, connect with the community, and express their visions for the future of the Association. This ensures that our board members are selected based on a thorough understanding of their goals and alignment with our mission. We believe that this approach will contribute to a board that is well-prepared, engaged, and equipped to guide the MTA into the exciting possibilities that lie ahead.
As we move forward with this decision, we invite all of our members to continue participating in the conversations, discussions, and initiatives that define the MTA. Your input is invaluable, and we are grateful for your ongoing dedication to our shared mission. Change is not just something we adapt to; it is something we actively shape. Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to the vibrant discussions and positive changes that lie ahead.
Warm regards,
Carl Youngblood President MTA Board of Directors
