2024 Award Recipient - Kathy RidlKathy Ridl, the recipient of the 2024 IIPS Outstanding Achievement Award, exemplifies dedication to our colleges and students that goes beyond professionalism; it is deeply personal. Her tireless efforts, often after hours and on challenging issues, make her an invaluable asset.As one colleague noted, "Kathy Ridl is often the unsung heroine! She quietly (for Kathy LOL) helps people without asking for recognition. So many times, Kathy has assisted after hours or on difficult issues. Many nights there have been patches that would not have been loaded without her help! And, if Kathy can’t assist you, she knows who to ask. She’ll get you to the right person and then follow up to make sure they contacted you and that the issue is resolved." Known for her quiet yet impactful assistance and unwavering follow-up, Kathy embodies the spirit of service and commitment. This well-deserved recognition highlights her exceptional contributions. |
