WPEA Member is Pride of Puyallup

WPEA member, Kami Robinson, from Pierce College, was presented with the Winter 2007 Pride of Puyallup Award at Puyallup’s All-College Meeting on April 13, 2007. Recognized for her attention to both people and detail, Robinson accomplishes many diverse tasks including scheduling candidates for job interviews, arranging meetings and events, and supporting vital campus initiatives, according to College President, Dr. Hasart.

“I can think of no one more deserving at this time,” explained nominator Mari Kruger. “In all my dealings with Kami, she has shown a level of skills, abilities and knowledge of the College that sets a standard for others at the highest level and goes above and beyond in her work to help us be successful.”

Beyond the scope of her regular duties, Robinson takes the time to support her classified staff peers by serving on various committees and as a Job Representative. She coordinates cards, recognitions and celebrations for her coworkers in a way that honors them. She embodies the values of the College and evokes the spirit of this award in her work daily.

“She is so knowledgeable about how the College works, who to call, and what to do and has really become the “go to gal” at the Pierce College Puyallup Campus,” commented coworker, Linda Gulbransen. “She is willing to help anyone with anything, which often gets her in trouble with her work load. And, on a personal level, she is a giving and caring person; just ask the numerous people who stop by for a chocolate pick-me-up each day.”

A photograph of the honoree and a plaque engraved with her name will be displayed in the main hall of the Gaspard Building at Pierce College Puyallup. Congratulations, Kami!
