Awards

Level I Employee Recognition Award Certificate of Excellence (September 17, 2003 DRC)
For Ryan’s exceptional performance and dedicated commitment to DRC’s success.

Level I Employee Recognition Award Certificate of Excellence (March 30, 2004) (DRC)
Ryan is knowledgeable in many areas and helped me to develop a manual, interim change request process for the customer, which will eventually be automated. This has really helped the customer in that they currently had no tracking process for change requests - this process is now used command-wide. Ryan has supported this effort by converting the change request form from Excel to HTML. This is only one example of the many times he has helped with conversions to more technologically advanced processes leading to efficiency in many of the things we do at OCNAC. Ryan is always ready and willing to support any task asked of him. Ryan has done this Extra Work while accomplishing his usual workload - working within (meeting and sometimes exceeding) tight deadlines as well as maintaining a high standard of quality in all that he does. Some other examples include, management of conversion from USCS NAC to ICE OCNAC web site (as the customer goes through the transformation from U.S. Customs Service to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement under the Department of Homeland Security); supporting multiple marketing/proposal efforts; development of a "mock" web-site for demonstration to potential customers at the Tinker Technology Expo. These are among the many!
