Shout out to our latest Campus Kudos honorees!  

Keri Adorisio, Student Services, was recognized for collaboration.Keri Adorisio has been thoughtful and thorough as she coordinates with other campus offices and areas. Appreciate her positive attitude, and willingness to collaborate.”

Todd Felmly, Information Technology, was recognized for quick response. “Todd may be hidden away in IT, but he is ALWAYS quick on the draw to take care of the IT requests assigned to him!  He is always very helpful!!!”

Darcie Flower, College of Medicine, was recognized for leadership. “Anyone who knows Darcie knows she is deserving of kudos on any given day! She brings a warm and welcoming demeanor to this office and this team that makes it a place you want to come to work each day. She is a leader who keeps her team informed and ready for the road bumps ahead. Like any good lumberjack, she knows where to make the strategic chop and is ready to yell, “timber,” when appropriate (just ask her about trees if this seems like an odd analogy). And perhaps most importantly, she is understanding when “life happens,” and has prepared this team to roll with the punches and adapt when there are challenges. NEOMED is lucky to have many great leaders, but today we want to highlight Darcie Flower. COM wouldn’t be the home that it is without you!”

Bill Gibson, Information Technology, was recognized for helpfulness.Bill is always so helpful when it comes to IT/banner issues! If he doesn’t know the answer, he will find out!  And he always has a smile on his face!!!!”

Although she’s on a different team, she didn’t hesitate to pause her own project and come to my rescue, quickly setting up a last-minute Zoom for a meeting that was about to begin. I sincerely appreciate her willingness to be a team player—not just for her own team, but wherever help is needed. Her positive attitude, flexibility and readiness to jump in made all the difference. Way to go, Whitney!”
