The Society of Cable Telecommunications Engineers (SCTE) announced the additions of Charlotte Field (Comcast Cable) and Mike LaJoie (Time Warner Cable) to the SCTE board.

Field and LaJoie occupy the new appointed director-at-large positions
on board of directors. The two new seats increase the number of board
members to 19. (SCTE’s membership elects the individuals who fill the
board’s other 17 seats, which consist of 12 regional directors, four
directors-at-large, and one director-at-large Canada).

The SCTE Board’s Executive Committee—currently comprising Tom Gorman,
Frank Eichenlaub, Nomi Bergman, Bob Foote, and Patrick O’Hare—is
responsible for filling the Appointed Director-At-Large positions. The
SCTE Board last expanded in 2002, when it grew from 15 to 17 members.
As with the board’s four Director-At-Large positions, Field and LaJoie
represent the entire SCTE membership.

Field is senior vice-president, infrastructure and operations, national
engineering and technical operations (NETO) with Comcast. In this role,
she leads a combined organization responsible for supporting Comcast’s
national infrastructure and operations for both the enterprise and
customer facing networks/products.

LaJoie is executive vice-president and CTO of Time Warner Cable. He has
been responsible for the development and implementation of technology
strategy for video, data and voice products, technology support,
network operations, and the advancement of industry standards and
policy.
