"Abby does a great job working on marketing projects for the School of Medicine and Health Sciences and the GW Medical Faculty Associates. She is always very flexible and willing to help out. She is a true team player - and does a great job with the projects that she leads - her quality is very high! Abby is also a leader for the SMHS social media accounts. She has made a positive impact on our team, on the school and the MFA, and on the lives of the patients we serve!"

Addie Murphy

Academic Department Administrator
Trachtenberg School of Public Policy and Public Administration

"Addie co-coordinates the CCAS Staff Resource Group which meets weekly via zoom. The group is a safe place where department administrators can train each other in difficult systems, suggest process improvements, and listen to guest speakers to improve institutional knowledge. It's an essential service for administrators that is NOT a part of Addie's job duties. She does it because staff need spaces to talk to each other. THANK YOU ADDIE!"

Allene David

Administrative Manager
George Washington School of Business
F. David Fowler Career Center

"Allene just does not stop doing things for people. One day, she was like "Our offices need to hang out more" -- and then scheduled a huge luncheon just for chatting and relationship building. She didn't need to do it, nobody told her to do it. She saw the need for community building and she went forward full steam. This is the kind of energy that we need! THANK YOU ALLENE!"

Courtney Frost

Associate Director, Employer Relations
Center for Career Services
Enrollment and Student Success

"Courtney is so fun to work with. She makes me want to collaborate with her on projects: she responds quickly, with all the numbers and facts, AND she makes jokes while doing it. She's so active on our team's group chat — It really helps build community when you can laugh with people about silly things. So glad to have Courtney on the team!!"

Katherine Norton

Director, Career Learning and Experiences
Center for Career Services
Enrollment and Student Success

"Working with Katherine makes me feel so supported. She takes a life coach mentality to just about every conversation! She wants you to succeed — she is constantly finding ways to tell you that your work is valuable and appreciated, even when she's stressed from her own workload. She's a champion relationship-building and we are lucky to have her!"
