In this capacity, Ms. Azelton will lead the program planning process for future-year projects and budget in support of the organization’s strategic goals. Alongside her new responsibilities, Ms. Azelton will continue as Co-chair of SWF’s Summit for Space Sustainability.

SWF is also proud to announce that Ian Christensen has been promoted to Senior Director, Private Sector Programs. In his new role, Mr. Christensen will lead SWF's SSA and STM policy work and initiatives related to in-space logistics, including satellite servicing, orbital debris remediation and mitigation and other ISAM capabilities.
