What services do you and your teammates provide to campus?

We provide Intranet and Internet network services for computers, voice-over-IP phone connectivity, and Wi-Fi wireless access for campus and UK HealthCare. 

What campus units do you collaborate with?

I collaborate with all campus and UK HealthCare units in Lexington and several UK buildings and offices across the state who need internet. Everyone uses the network in one way or another.

What are your workplace values?

I value helping people, whether it's completing a project or fixing something that helps others.

What is your favorite part of working in ITS and UK?

The people.  I have worked here for over 25 years, and the reason I stay is because the people I work with (in my office, around campus, and around the state) are great people.

They are caring, helpful, down-to-earth people that work together to accomplish Kentucky's goals.
