This award recognizes Kristen’s professionalism, dedication, passion and integrity in her 13-year career at the university. She provides vital pre-award grant administration in her department, supporting research faculty in the submission of applications, Just In Time (JIT) packages, and progress reports, as well as acting as the unit’s student services representative. She is described by her colleagues as unflappable, unfailingly positive, warm, reliable and efficient, and prior CDB Interim Chair Kristen Verhey calls her the “best pre-award grants person on campus.”
