What services do you and your teammates provide to campus?
We order equipment and materials for various projects on campus. We work with project managers and estimators to get them what they need for a project. If needed, we also get quotes for materials from the vendors. Most orders are also delivered to our building, so we make sure it arrives ok and notify the project manager through Pinnacle on the status of their order.
What campus units do you collaborate with?
We work closely with ITS Networking & Infrastructure project managers getting them what they need. We also work with campus purchasing and the ITS budget office on any of the finances involved with our orders.
What are your workplace values?
Teamwork. We have a great team here and we work together great. We all work toward our goals as a department and as a University.
What is your favorite part of working in ITS and UK?
I love the people I work with. I’ve worked here a long time and I love being a part of UK and what they do for the state of Kentucky. It’s nice to feel like you are playing a part in all the great things the University does for our state.
