Mailing Standards Manager Named

I am pleased to announce that I have selected Sharon Daniel as the Manager of Mailing Standards. Sharon brings a wealth of experience to the job. As manager of Ground Products, Sharon headed the Postal Service team responsible for the integration and development of ground and return package services, including Parcel Return Service. Sharon was the Finance Manager for the Expedited Package Services Strategic Business Unit, and she has testified numerous times before the Postal Rate Commission on issues ranging from letter and parcel processing costs to the impact of shape and density on delivery costs. Sharon earned a BS in mathematics and an MS in Operations Research, both from the College of William and Mary. She began her career as a management consultant for Price Waterhouse LLP.

Please join me in welcoming Sharon in her new role.
