90 Minds Community

90 Minds is pleased to announce the results of its 2026 Board of Directors election and to thank our members for their strong participation and engagement.

This year's election saw a record level of participation, with a 40% voter turnout-continuing a positive upward trend in member engagement and leadership involvement.

Board Election Results

Re-Elected to Second Terms

• Chuck Peddy

• Gary Feldman

Chuck and Gary will continue their service on the Board, providing continuity, experience, and steady leadership as the organization moves forward.

Newly Elected Board Member

• Eric Anderson (Micro Accounting) 

We are excited to welcome Eric Anderson to the 90 Minds Board of Directors. Eric will begin onboarding immediately and will be actively involved in committee work, with a focus on Membership and Technology initiatives.

Appreciation for Service and Leadership

We also want to extend our deepest and most sincere thanks to @Madeline Stefanou, who is concluding her service on the Board next month. Madeline has been an exceptional leader, a thoughtful collaborator, and a steady presence during an important period of growth and change for 90 Minds. Her contributions, insight, and commitment have left a lasting impact on the organization, and she will be truly missed.

Appreciation for All Candidates

We extend our sincere thanks to all candidates who stepped forward to serve, including Stuart Blumenthal and Angela Payne. The election results were very close, reflecting the depth of leadership talent and commitment within the 90 Minds community.

We are grateful to all members who participated in the election process and continue to contribute to the strength and direction of 90 Minds.

Thank you, Anne, for sharing. 

I want to take a moment to express what an honor it has been to serve alongside the current Board and to be a part of this remarkable group of leaders.  Over the past year, under Gary Feldman's steady leadership as President, we have accomplished meaningful progress as a Board-completing important internal documentation such as job descriptors and Standard Operating Procedures.  These efforts have strengthened our governance and set a clear path forward for continued success.

As I prepare to step down in March, I am grateful for the opportunity to have contributed to our growth and direction.  While my term on the Board is ending, I look forward to remaining active in our community through my continued work with the Membership Committee and by exploring opportunities to join a second committee.  Thank you all for your dedication and for making my time on the Board a truly rewarding experience.

With appreciation,
Madeline Stefanou
