Immediate past-president Stuart Robertson will also continue on in that role.
Brossmer said: “It has been an honor to serve as AGA president for the past three years. I am proud of the AGA board for implementing creative ways to thrive and serve the AGA community, despite the challenges of a worldwide pandemic.
“I am particularly pleased that the AGA just witnessed the largest group of members answer our call to stand for election to the AGA board that the association has seen in decades. Clearly, AGA’s growth and expanded educational programs, and advocacy for industry standards, are inspiring more and more members to volunteer time to AGA.”
