Kam Quarles was featured in a March 3 story on ThePacker.com that covered his move from the Washington, DC-based United Fresh Produce Association to McDermott’s Government Strategies Group. Mr. Quarles was VP of government relations and legislative affairs for the Association (which said he will be “hard to replace”), and will add to the strong agricultural component of the Firm’s Government Strategies team. Noting that “I’m really not going very far,” he will be involved in many of the same governmental issues at McDermott.
