Additionally, Mr. Derham resigned to pursue other business opportunities with the Rice Investment Group.

 

“On behalf of the entire Board and management team, I want to express our gratitude and thank Paul and Kyle for their outstanding service to our Company,” said Pat Eilers, Executive Chairman of AirJoule Technologies. “They have helped shape our strategy and build momentum as we work to commercialize our transformational AirJoule® system, and we wish them well.

Ms. Sterling previously served in various tax and finance roles for Visa from 1995 to 2018, including as Senior Vice President of the Global Risk Management team from 2016 to 2018. Ms. Sterling holds a bachelor’s degree in accounting from San Francisco State University and a master’s degree in tax from Golden Gate University. She is a Certified Public Accountant.

 

Thomas Murphy previously held leadership roles as a Partner in the Audit and Advisory practices at Crowe LLP until his retirement in 2020.
