The most recent tax filing on the Newfields webpage shows Venable made more than $750,000 per year. The filing covers July 1, 2018, to June 30, 2019, and was signed and filed in May 2020.

Morgan said these changes which came after a restructuring of the leadership announced in early February make her feel hopeful about the future.
