Greg Bartlett
I had the pleasure of working with Debbie for many years at Ascension Technologies. She is and has always been one of the most valuable mentors that I could of hoped to have a chance to report too. Debbie excelled in showing her dedication to fulfilling one of the companies core values, that our employees are the companies most valuable assets. I can say 110% that I always felt that Debbie truly took this to heart and it showed every day that I worked with her. I can not thank you enough for being the wonderful person that you are and wish you all the best in future endeavors. Any company that is fortunate enough to have Debbie as part of their organization is truly blessed.
