Arch brings exactly what I want in a staffer: meticulous attention to detail, a high level of scrutiny, in-depth knowledge and experience, and a not-so-lacking willingness to push back at me.

That is how one sums up the everything that is Arch and why I'm so remiss to know his time on my staff is coming to an end. To say that Arch is always up to something is to say that fire burns. It's obvious. That makes a recommendation hard to write because the pile keeps getting bigger. But, that's what I appreciates about him.

As a member of staff, Arch looks at the big picture. He addresses the member experience and our impact on it, all while keeping an eye on precedence and potential chain reactions. I think this measured hand is part of the reason why we continue to instill a "quiet" period from the Chamber's perspective. That is to say, the boat isn't rocking and Arch's clear view of the waters is a contributing factor.

Thanks, Arch!

When Arch joined the Dark Council I almost felt like he didn't join, because his inputs and work already had my ear. Yet it's been great to see him take on Headmaster and give his vision to that role and what it can and should be as a part of our community as well as helping guide the larger experience of members. His help on XP as it relates to the intake learning curve of new members and the value he's already provided is an indication of what is to come in the future. Congratulations.
