Ashley Swartzendruber, Project Coordinator “Ashley has gone above and beyond time and time again. Even without having the trainer title, she has taken it upon herself to train new Project Coordinators, help Project Managers, and assist others in the office with IT issues whenever they come up. No matter what is asked of her, she’s always willing to help and never complains. Her positive attitude and willingness to support everyone around her make a big difference to our team.”
Dalton Smith, Senior Project Manager “Dalton is always on top of his game. I look forward to working with him, he is constantly communicating and seems to be one step ahead. Even if he has a lot on his plate he wouldn’t hesitate to help others in times of need. One time, I needed help with A/R in regard to shipping, he immediately called the vendor and helped me figure out the problem.“
Eric Setka, Controls Engineer “Eric has been very helpful in helping me acclimate to my new role and become familiar with SSI business practices “
Katie Grisdale, Project Manager “Katie always does an incredible job managing projects. She takes the workload off others so they can focus on other tasks. She wholly embodies what project management should look like and does an exceptional job communicating with the customers, coordinating with vendors, making decisions, and doing what’s required to get the job done. She always makes the sales team’s life much easier and is a great asset to our company. I always look forward to working with her and appreciate all the great work she does. Great job, Katie!“
Kent Trehearne, Senior Accountant “Kent is always going above and beyond to help his team. Much is being asked of him and he still finds time to help those around him who don’t excel in Excel like he does! He is trying to help create better ways of working for all so things are more streamlined.”
Kyle Rowles, Permit & Licensing Manager “Kyle has done an outstanding job supporting external teams through the permitting process as well as supporting his own teammates through training and questions. He is dedicated to solving each problem with urgency while exercising patience for those who need clarity to understand. He is a great example of teamwork and customer service within the company and the permitting dept!“
“Kyle is an exceptionally valuable asset to SSI. He consistently demonstrates a strong commitment to supporting both his team and the broader organization, always willing to step in and help wherever needed. He proactively identifies opportunities to improve processes and increase efficiency, contributing to the team’s overall success. Kyle is patient and effective when training others, taking the time to ensure teammates feel confident and supported. He is also quick to recognize the contributions of others, consistently sharing credit rather than seeking recognition for himself. His genuine character, collaborative approach, and consistently positive attitude make him a trusted colleague and a strong representative of SSI’s values”
Renn Martin, Content Marketing Strategist “Honestly, Renn could be nominated for Employee of the Quarter every single quarter. Since joining SSI, I’ve never seen him give anything less than his absolute best to every project, every teammate, and every customer he supports. He consistently goes above and beyond, no matter what’s asked of him. Over the past year especially, Renn has stepped up in a big way. He has taken on additional responsibilities, filled critical gaps within our team, and done so with a positive attitude and a willingness to help wherever needed. He’s also done an outstanding job mentoring our marketing interns, ensuring they get meaningful, hands-on experience and feel like valued members of the team. Beyond Marketing, Renn is always one of the first to volunteer for committees and company initiatives, demonstrating his commitment to making SSI better as a whole, not just within his own department. Renn is the kind of employee every organization hopes to have. We are incredibly fortunate to have him on our team and at SSI, and I can’t think of anyone more deserving of this recognition.”
Tom Kluthe, Software Project Manager “Tom went above and beyond on picking up my projects while I was out of the office for my Wedding and honeymoon. “
