I rise today with pride, gratitude, and some bittersweet news. After nearly 8 years on Team Clark, Kathryn Alexander, my communications director and senior adviser, is moving on to her next project and her next chapter. Kathryn, affectionately known as 'KA' to all of us, brings her incredible style, good humor, patriotism, compassion, and wicked-smart strategy to all she does. It has been a privilege to have her in the trenches with me, from late-night press conferences to early-morning interviews. It will always be my distinct honor to call her my friend. I thank KA. She is extraordinary. May this next chapter bring her, Mike, Nolan, and baby Jude all of the happiness and all of the bliss that they deserve.
