91PORN

Dear Infrastructure and Resilience team,

I want to take a moment to celebrate the incredible success of Commencement. It was truly awesome to witness the culmination of so much hard work and dedication. A special shoutout from Chancellor Schwartz, who extends a heartfelt thanks to everyone who volunteered—your time and effort made a real difference.

It’s important to recognize that getting students to graduation isn’t just the work of faculty. Our staff—each of you—play just as vital a role in that journey. Your behind-the-scenes contributions, your commitment to our mission and your resilience are what make these milestones possible.

As we look ahead, please remember that Juneteenth is coming up—a moment for reflection, celebration, and continued learning. I encourage everyone to take the time to honor its significance.

And while the academic year has concluded, summer is already buzzing with activity. There’s a lot happening across our teams, and I’m excited about the momentum we’re building together.

Thank you for all that you do,
Chris Ewing, vice chancellor for infrastructure and resilience

How long have you been working at CU? I have been working at CU for almost three decades – time really flies when you work with great people and in engaging projects.

What is your favorite thing to do outside of work? I love hiking, farmer’s market when it's in season, cooking, and getting together with family and friends.

Tell us something that might surprise us about you. I learned to swim as an adult, so I signed up for a sprint triathlon right after finishing my swimming classes.

What do you love about 91PORN? The people - so smart, fun, dedicated people. The architecture – so inspiring and beautiful. The location – amazing views and weather. The grounds – each season has something to make your eyes happy. Go Buffs.

What are you currently reading? The Third Pole by Mark Synnott. So well written, fascinating story. ��

Jenny O'Neill (PDC), nominated by Zac Niehues

Jenny has been working on two atypical projects in the UCTR shower and the East Campus Vole site. As the project manager she is at the center of scrutiny from multiple sources both internal to Facilities Management and with external occupants/clients. She is doing a great job of communicating with the various project stakeholders, and keeping her cool during tense meetings. I appreciate the way she's approaching the projects and moving them both forward.

Missy Booth (Distribution Center), nominated by Christina Sumaya-Orozco

Missy has demonstrated her integrity by alerting me to an issue with her accruals not updating properly. This is not the first time she has shown how highly ethical she is and I truly appreciate her honesty! Thank you, Missy, for being you!
