Works Above and Beyond

Jessica Bravo-Mendosa, Human Resources
Big shout out to Jessica for consistently providing exceptional customer service! She always goes above and beyond to assist me with any questions I may have. She is very kind and patient. Your hard work and dedication do not go unnoticed. Thank you for EVERYTHING you do! You are amazing!

Carmen Chapman, Kinesiology
Carmen put together swag bags for our orientation for PE students this year! The swag was well received by students and made a huge difference for us! Carmen always goes above and beyond to make people feel welcome and to create an amazing workplace environment. Thank you, Carmen!

Saved My Bacon!

James Lopez, Facilities Management
James worked on a complex repair at the Conley Art building today. The work was hard, and he really showed up for us in order to make this happen. He saved our bacon!

Casey Schramm, Facilities Management
Casey worked extremely hard today making a difficult repair at the Conley Art building. This not only came at a busy time but was unexpected and would have been detrimental to the facility if it hadn't been dealt with in a timely manner.
