She is managing our current website and is a part of a small team leading the new website work. Yesterday (an extra steamy day in July), her first meeting was at 8:30am. At 8:30pm, she was still working. Not only does she put in the time, BUT ALSO: she is so skilled at the work, so thoughtful of her colleagues, our audiences, our brand, AND she's such a delightful human (if you've been fortunate enough yet to have a meeting with her, you already know), she deserves a rock-concert decibel shout out.
