US: The ready-mix concrete and heavy building materials producer Knife River Corporation has appointed Patricia Chiodo to its board of directors. Chiodo will serve on the board's audit and compensation committees. The company says that she brings a ‘wealth of financial expertise.’ She previously held the position of chief financial officer at Verra Mobility Corporation, from which she stepped down in 2022, prior to which she was chief financial officer at RSC Holdings. Chiodo is also a member of UNS Energy Corporation’s audit committee and has served on the audit committee of Embark Technology.
Knife River Corporation chair Karen Fagg said "Tricia is an accomplished business leader with experience in corporate strategy, mergers and acquisitions, risk management and capital markets. When we chose to expand the board and add another independent director, we were looking for someone with Tricia's combination of financial expertise, experience with public companies and proven skills as a team builder. She is a great addition to the board, and we look forward to working with her as we continue to grow Knife River."
