Are you in PDS? I know you said you prefer a different firm but I can probably get you into CIOA if you want to switch.

Hi K3! Yes please do, would love to give you more info :)

Thanks K1. Actually forgot CIOA did that, was on a CIOA project a few years ago. I do want a fresh start though. A different perspective on things hence the preference for a different firm.
