Thank you, Jen and good afternoon, everyone. I'm very excited today to introduce John Van Scoter, who took over the reins as CEO in June. John brings to Solid Power a skill set that we believe is ideally suited for this stage of the company's development. This includes deep experience working in clean tech and renewable energy as well as a history of leading tech companies through the development stage and into commercialization. It has been a pleasure working with John and helping him get up to speed. I've been extremely pleased with the leadership and engagement thus far. I think I speak on behalf of the entire Board in saying we feel he is off to a great start.
