Q - Wamsi Mohan

I'm happy that you could join us today. It's been a few years since we've had 3D Systems at our conference. Lots of things have changed since the last time. We had a different management team over here. So maybe to start off at the very highest level, Jeff, could you maybe talk about, from the time you became CEO, what are some of the initiatives that you have focused on?
