• Bret Moreland, Laboratory and Facilities Coordinator, ECEE

Bret Moreland consistently performs exceptional work in his areas of responsibility 鈥� from moving extremely heavy, bulky million dollar pieces of equipment to repairing power electronics lab PV carts that constantly need repair, to finding and coordinating repairs of water leaks, power outages, malfunctioning AV equipment in classrooms, and so much more 鈥� Bret quietly and professionally goes about his work, ensuring that ECEE stakeholders can continue doing what they do best 鈥� teaching, learning, and conducting research. As one of our graduate students recently stated, 鈥淎t this point in time, these buildings are held together by sheer will. Bret has been keeping the ECEE building together. If I visit the ECEE building 20 years from now I would like to see a statue of Bret as a dedication to those who kept this building working.鈥�

• Kendra Thibeault, Graduate & Undergraduate Program Manager, EMP

Kendra played a critical role in the successful launch of EMP鈥檚 new ME in Engineering Management degree on Coursera. This required her to go above and beyond her job responsibilities as the academic and admission advisor (at that time) for close to a year. She helped lead the development of new processes and procedures for the Coursera student services side, such as advising, registration, degree & certificate completion audits, and information webinars. She assisted with ensuring all systems requirements were correctly in place, in addition to helping with marketing ventures and developing the new Coursera web pages. As usual, Kendra鈥檚 continual contribution to the EMP is exceptional.

The ITL Program nominates Lauren Darling for the December 2022 Employee Recognition Award. Lauren has shown an unparalleled dedication to serving students. She has led our engineering team in multiple technical contents areas which include Arduino, Soldering, and ECAD which consisted of over 100 workshops serving nearly 1000 students this semester. This semester has seen a large increase in students requiring electronics support, and Lauren has provided that regardless of staffing shortages on the team. Lauren has taken a key role in multiple new initiatives such as leading the development of a PCB internship and planning the launch of cutting-edge additive circuit manufacturing equipment, in partnership with faculty in Mechanical and Electrical Engineering. Thank you for always putting students first, Lauren!
