To: Marisa Cantarovici
From: Ronda Franke
CDLE Value: Collaboration
I want to recognize and thank Marisa
Cantarovici. Marisa has been a godsend for
me during this whole pandemic. Because
she has been not only willing to go into the
office and be present, but she has also
been willing to help our whole department in
dealing with the physical mail that comes in
and out of the office on a daily basis.
Without her I wouldn't have been able to
efficiently do my job from home.
Not only does she scan incoming mail to
me and she also stuffs the mail I print on a
daily basis into envelopes to send out.
I thank her from the bottom of my heart.
To: Christa Sanchez
From: Susan DeMeules
CDLE Value: Agility
Our communications coordinator was out
on sick leave and Christa immediately
stepped in to contact all of our stakeholders
about an upcoming meeting. Her swift
response was very much appreciated!
To: Scott Wagner
From: Amy Wilson
CDLE Value: Agility
Scott is an amazingly flexible co-worker
who can find solutions to problems that are
actually outside of his job description and
implement them in timely and cost effective
ways. I doubt we could keep the lab running
as smoothly without his help!
To: Jacquee Wilson
From: James A. Newby
CDLE Value: Collaboration
I want to give a huge KUDOS to Jacquee
Wilson for presenting at the E&T-
Workforce Development Programs All Staff
meeting on 19 Jan 2021. WDP likes to do
a Division Spotlight once a month to help
our staff understand the broader mission of
CDLE. Jacquee provided a very thorough
and informative presentation on the many
programs and functions within OPS. The
information she provided educated WDP
staff and provided them with a better
understanding of the important work of
OPS. Her willingness to take the time to
share this information was a true testament
to value of collaboration.
To: Dan Cannell
From: Rich from the Data Team
CDLE Value: Collaboration
Dan defines Collaboration for me. He
immediately responds to my requests for
his Subject Matter Expertise!!
The most recent request was him
accepting a last minute Google Meet
invite. I set the time for 30 minutes
because it was such a last-minute request.
Two hours later, Dan was passionately
answering all my detailed questions with a
genuine "can I help you with more" follow
on to my last question! It was amazing how
fast and pleasurable the time went by…
