Nextleaf Solutions names Sam Kassem as interim chief executive officer, replacing outgoing CEO Andrews, according to multiple reports.

The change comes as the company transitions leadership while continuing normal corporate operations. One outlet describes Kassem’s appointment as interim and ties it directly to Andrews stepping down from the CEO role. Another similarly reports the same leadership transition, emphasizing Kassem’s appointment and the timing of Andrews’ departure. The coverage aligns on the core facts—who is appointed, the interim nature of the role, and that Andrews is stepping down—while providing limited additional detail about the reasons for the transition or interim succession plans beyond the change in title and responsibilities.
