It's been a little over a year since I was introduced to you Kevin. You embody the Spartan Spirit, "He who sweats more in training, bleeds less in battle". This quote emphasizes the Spartan philosophy that rigorous training and preparation can reduce casualties in actual battle. Kevin, throughout your career, you have exemplified the importance of discipline and readiness.

Mississippi Department of Rehabilitation Services, thank you for your dedication and sacrifice in serving our state.

I'm grateful to the Public School Teachers who continue to serve our Communities in spite of having "their hands tied" with regard to so many factors that impact their ability to be effective in the classroom; class sizes, behavioral problems, contradictory societal values etc etc. You have my undying gratitude and utmost respect.
Thank you to the consumer financial protection bureau for providing a pamphlet on home equity loans with my application from my bank. It was great to know someone other than the institution trying to sell me on the product had my back with objective information and tips.
Sending much appreciation to the HUD Pittsburgh Field Office Team that helps lift those most vulnerable by supporting our communities through homelessness and housing initiatives, workforce development, and infrastructure improvements.
I would like to say thank you to Anita Spinner Deputy Director for Operations, Center for Federal Executive Boards(FEB) National Operations, Workforce Policy and Innovation U.S. Office of Personnel Management. In 2022/2023 Anita took on the task of facilitating the transfer of individual FEBs over to OPM. She (along with her team) conducted a seamless transfer (in my opinion) of several employees, and helped process out those employees that were not interested in transferring over. Anita performed this monumental task with such professionalism and grace amidst a lot of moving part and unidentified guidance that was yet to be disseminated. With Anita at the helm leading the charge of coordinating this effort and keeping us informed of each stage in the process made me feel a sense of comfort and understanding. It made me want to work for OPM just by viewing her compassion for us during a difficult decision making time in our Federal careers. She would not like the spotlight as she just executes without all the kudos, but I want Anita and everyone else to know that she continues to impact my career and life in a most meaningful and positive way! Thank you Anita Spinner.
I would like to recognize my entire team. I am the Chief of Career Development and Training at the Department of State and I have the most dynamic, selfless, innovative, and passionate team. They work so hard every day and remain dedicated to empowering our workforce to achieve their full potential and contribute to the vital work of the Department of State. To this I say, THANK YOU!
