Kudos & Congratulations

UIT staff recognized for their excellent work

Congratulations to Julia Harrison (CTO organization) and Brent Wimber (Deputy CIO organization) for winning the last prize drawing!


Thank you, Elena Sharma, for all your help accessing and using the Human Resources Information Library (HRIL) and for pulling an employee list for me at the last minute. Also, thank you, Judy Yeates, for helping to quickly secure signatures for my HRIL access forms.

~ Larrisa Beth Turner, Strategic Communication 


I worked with Julia Harrison (UIT Voice Systems) during the November 15 bomb threat, and she was super helpful in assisting our area (Radiology) with phone issues, call transfers, and other communication needs. She was very pleasant and prompt in helping us, in turn helping to provide excellent patient care. Thank you again Julia!!!

~ Jamie McCormick, Diagnostic Radiology


Kudos to Marc Thompson, whose work on the UPay system has provisioned a great online solution for departmental credit card payments. Marc's quick response, proactive change notifications, and energetic and collaborative troubleshooting until solved have made possible our custom solution built on his UPay API — and better yet, helped keep it running through many changes over time — some fairly tall hurdles among them.

~ Stephen Mossbarger, Spencer S. Eccles Health Sciences Library


Samantha Lankford! Thank you for being prompt and communicative with me when the ticket is done. We recently worked on a ticket with you and had to modify some changes. Thank you again. You are an asset!

~ Trinh Lam, University of Utah Health Plans Clinical Operations


Clayton Norlen has been critical to the launch and success of the Nursing app Roundie. He has gone way beyond expectations, which were fundamental in getting the app developed. He has made himself an invaluable resource for our team. And he's just an all-around great guy and pleasure to work with.

~ Kevin Pompei, EPE & Accelerate


Avaree Vowell and Emily Jacoby have always been great at helping us with any Omni issues; they're super fast, responsive, and always willing to help!

~ Alysha Chan, College of Mines and Earth Sciences


Heather Winters: This employee went above and beyond to make sure all my telephone changes were made. She did them VERY quickly, and even followed up after the change to make sure the changes were done correctly. I have reached out to her with other questions and she's always willing to help. She's friendly and professional. Please give this employee a raise!

~ Stephanie Fratto, Auxiliary Services


Just have to give a huge thank you to Fernando Anato. Thank you for always being dependable and willing to help. THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

~ Heather Winters, CTO organization


The UIT Holiday Luncheon at the Alumni House was a big group effort. Everything came together on a compressed schedule and, in the spirit of continual improvement, concluded with a feedback survey and debrief meetings.

Thank you to my wonderful colleague Larrisa Beth Turner, whose attention to detail and event planning skills are amazing and invaluable, as is the support Cassandra Van Buren provided through the many event phases.

I can't thank our emcees Amir Masood and Aimee Ellett enough. You did it! And you were great. A huge shout-out to our awesome volunteers as well: Brandon Callahan, Arnie Carter, Tyler Chmelik, Tim Goodale, Brandon Gresham, Emily Jacoby, Tina Nguyen, Emily Rushton, Roy Schulz, Jeff Shuckra, Joshua Stallard, and Mike Tyler.

You're all the best! We couldn’t do it without you.

~ Jesse Drake , Strategic Communication
