00:00:10.240 --> 00:00:12.240
I never do anything at this university by myself. This award, the staff

00:00:15.259 --> 00:00:21.247
achievement Award actually represents
all the faculty, all the staff and

00:00:21.280 --> 00:00:25.157
all the students who have worked with
me throughout the years. It's all of

00:00:25.190 --> 00:00:31.026
our home here in sun devil country, no
matter what campus were on, we are

00:00:31.059 --> 00:00:35.847
all sun devils together. So it's my
friends, it's my colleagues across the

00:00:35.880 --> 00:00:40.857
university that make this such a great
place to be. The great thing about

00:00:40.890 --> 00:00:47.546
anna is, she is a issue. She exudes
sun devil spirit. Her office is a

00:00:47.579 --> 00:00:51.307
great example of what we hope. All of
our students come to decorate their

00:00:51.340 --> 00:00:56.917
dorms and uh, and, and become a part
of a living, breathing sun devil

00:00:56.950 --> 00:01:01.817
spirit on campus. I am the ambassador
of sun for students. It means a lot

00:01:01.850 --> 00:01:05.227
more than that. I provide
opportunities for our students who live in the

00:01:05.260 --> 00:01:09.977
residents halls to really experience
issue in different ways to get

00:01:10.010 --> 00:01:15.617
involved with faculty, to stay
engaged. Um, I want them to stay being sun

00:01:15.650 --> 00:01:21.107
devils. So we, we also do have fun. I
am very motivated to, via son level

00:01:21.140 --> 00:01:26.217
Number one, it is the students,
absolutely, the students, the students are

00:01:26.250 --> 00:01:30.706
all of our reason. No matter what job
we have here at issue, we're all

00:01:30.739 --> 00:01:34.357
working for the same goal and that's
to watch them graduate and be

00:01:34.390 --> 00:01:40.387
successful and then come back. Um, as
amazing alums, uh, to see what we've

00:01:40.420 --> 00:01:46.387
created here at issue. I appreciate
and respect everything that this

00:01:46.420 --> 00:01:50.816
university stands for. It's wonderful
actually to have all of our

00:01:50.849 --> 00:01:56.387
traditions that we've had, that our
founders came and gave us. And then

00:01:56.420 --> 00:02:00.747
it's wonderful to see the activity and
the change and all of the new

00:02:00.780 --> 00:02:05.397
traditions that we create all the time
at issue. The issue Alumni

00:02:05.430 --> 00:02:10.617
association is kind of our heartbeat
of the university. We are all Sun

00:02:10.650 --> 00:02:16.707
devils and we always will be always,

00:02:16.740 --> 00:02:18.740
