Moving from one team to another requires not just hitting these benchmarks, but performing consistently while exemplifying all 16 of our core values.
To provide further encouragement and employee appreciation, the following list includes individuals who received a well-deserved promotion. Congratulations!

Lindsey Goodson has tackled a lot of responsibilities from her 2021 summer internship position to full-time employee. With grit and determination, Lindsey completes multiple projects that aren’t in her job description.
When one of her team members were out on leave, she stepped in to fill the gap and help our company recruit new hires. To do so, her outstanding organizational and communication skills were put into use.
Lindsey has grown so much over the past year and we are so appreciative of her hard work! Congratulations, Lindsey Goodson!
