Congratulations Andrew & Roy
Andrew and Roy were nominated for Employee of the Year and Manager of the year by members of the Yuma Sun staff.
Andrew is one of the newsroom’s most valuable assets: skilled, knowledgeable, professional, conscientious, and extremely versatile. He designs the daily Yuma Sun, the Palo Verde Valley Times, and the Sunday Desert Life and Business sections with flair and precision. He is always the first to volunteer to take on a new project – and when we’re in a scheduling bind, he always, without question, volunteers to do more. Don’t let his quiet demeanor fool you – he’s just working hard at knocking out today’s tasks!
Roy is a great mentor for his department. He takes the time to patiently teach the newbies and works well with his team members. His team is a well-oiled machine when it comes to putting out the paper each night. He keeps it all together. He manages the copy desk with authority and without losing his sense of humor or his willingness to help. Sometimes he has been called to replace stories or artwork at the last minute, and he handles these situations like a pro. He’s a tremendous asset to our company.
