• Biggest Influence: The biggest influence I have had in the printing industry has actually been my staff in the Printing Services department. I have learned a lot from their years of experience, and they are all a great resource for me.
• Accomplishments: I am most proud of the expansion and upgrade we have recently undertaken in our department, both in software and equipment. We recently upgraded our digital equipment to a Kodak NexPress 2500, which was a huge step forward for us. That was a very long approval process but my research and determination paid off in the end. I was also instrumental in the decision to move forward with a Web-to-print system (Avanti eAccess). I have been in the department a little more than three years, and we have experienced growth each year.
