Michelle A

Michelle has gone above and beyond her job role. She has helped us recruit 2 network engineers and is now helping us recruit a 3rd. This is while the PMO is severely understaffed. She's still attempting to fill in a role of her own and this is while Michelle Dacoco was out on maternity leave. The network team appreciates her great attitude, effort, and service.

Supakit (Nat) K

In the category of Calm in the Eye of the Storm, Nat was the first ITS team member to respond to the web server alerts and identify an issue. He reached out to his leadership to ensure awareness but also continued to collaborate across ITS teams to help diagnose the issue and provide timely information on IP traffic volume to the web server during the March 16/17 DDOS attack. The information provided by Nat was used to formulate a response which, when implemented, allowed the WWW server to remain up for the rest of the day.
