Algorand Staci Warden
Staci Warden has been named CEO of the Algorand Foundation, which was announced yesterday. According to a press release, Warden, who has been on the foundation's board of directors since September 2021, will assume the leadership of the organization. 

Warden's enormous experience will be nurtured by the Algorand Foundation. She managed the Global Market Development practice at the Milken Institute before joining the organization. The Milken Institute is a nonprofit think tank whose mission is to help people build meaningful lives.

Warden oversaw capital market development, creative finance with sustainable development aims. Its eventual integration into the Algorand ecosystem appears to be a natural progression.

By combining decentralized and traditional money, this network intends to become the center for the ‘future of finance’ running on its Proof-of-Stake (PoS) blockchain. Warden has recognized its potential by designing it with a non-carbon emission method, as well as a low-cost and scalable network. 

Staci recognizes the potential for Algorand to become a dominant Layer One blockchain. She has the experience and knowledge to drive our worldwide efforts to scale and give excellent value to our community. According to Kieron Guilfoyle, the Foundation's Board Chairman, I am confident she'll move the Algorand Foundation into expansion mode right away.

Warden headed JP Morgan's Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) practices in addition to her expertise at the Milken Institute. According to the statement, she also headed Nasdaq's two microcap markets and held key positions in the public and nonprofit sectors at the US Treasury Department. 

Warden also worked for the Harvard Institute for International Development and the Center for Global Development. The Foundation's newest member has worked in over 50 countries and has a broad understanding of the use cases and possibilities for crypto to help people and solve real-world problems.
