“When we're all out in the midst of the battles, if you will, it's hard to even think about recognition or anything else. You're just trying to get the work done, trying to solve the problems when they come,  and provide options, opportunities, and research to help the clients to do the best thing they can do. Of course there's always a struggle with scheduling, the budget, supply chain, and a lot of other issues that we have to deal with on a daily basis.”
