Candice Wilson, U.S. Grains Council (USGC) manager of ethanol trade policy and economics, departed the Council on Oct. 21 to pursue educational opportunities.
“Candice has done a great job working on ethanol policy and providing economic analysis during her tenure with the Council, including playing a key role in our defense of anti-dumping and countervailing duty cases in various countries,” said Ryan LeGrand, USGC president and chief executive officer. “We thank Candice for her contributions at USGC and wish her the best in her future endeavors.”
Wilson joined the Council in September 2017 as the graduate fellow in economics and ethanol. In this role, Wilson worked on a variety of projects ranging from ethanol research to analysis of global supply and demand for coarse grains and co-products.
In August 2018, the Council promoted Wilson to manager of ethanol trade policy. In that role, she managed trade policy issues related to ethanol and continued work on global economic analysis.
“Over the last three years, Candice has been an important asset to the ethanol and economics team and the agricultural community, having managed trade policy issues related to ethanol in addition to work on global economic analysis,” said Brian Healy, USGC director of global ethanol market development. “Candice’s future is bright, and I wish her the best in her professional journey.”
The Council’s leadership thanks Wilson for her service. Please join the Council in wishing her farewell!
