I feel like part of a team where everyone understands that we have an important mission, where everyone is willing to pitch in even if it isn't part of his or her "job description," and where everyone is willing to go above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that each of us, and ultimately LOTT, is successful.

I like working with computer modeling to explore possibilities and to optimize our treatment process. It's really interesting to see how one small change can drastically affect treatment efficiency.

I enjoy coming to work everyday because something unusual just might happen. It's a joy to work with such a diverse group of people who have such interesting lives and outside activities. Take me for example; I like to travel, so that gives me something interesting to talk about.

I have worked other maintenance jobs before and nothing even comes close to comparing to this one. I consider it a career, not just a job! Being employed by the LOTT Alliance has given me the security and freedom to start a family and follow my passions in life. I love coming to work because we are such a close knit group. It's almost like it's not work at all!
