Hassan Sheikh, It's an honor to extend my deepest gratitude for your dedication and the transformative impact you've made as a public servant. Your commitment to safeguarding public health as a non-partisan expert on public health emergency management in the Congressional Research Service for the Library of Congress is so behind-the-scenes, but I am sure it has shaped and continues to shape bills and policies that ensure the safety of many communities around the country!
It's been a little over a year since I was introduced to you Kevin. You embody the Spartan Spirit, "He who sweats more in training, bleeds less in battle". This quote emphasizes the Spartan philosophy that rigorous training and preparation can reduce casualties in actual battle. Kevin, throughout your career, you have exemplified the importance of discipline and readiness.

One of the greatest gifts that God gives us is the act of service; serving others. It’s a blessing and an honor to be surrounded by so many selfless people, working together to create a positive impact on our communities.
I would like to thank my Deputy Commissioner, Leslie Zimmerman, and Assistant Commissioner, Agnes Rusin, here at the NYC Department of Finance. These two leaders have been role models for women in public service. They work hard, dedicate themselves to continuous improvement, but most importantly, they support and coach me to become a better public servant. They not only serve the public but also empower managers like me to become the best each day. Public service is about helping others and being unselfish, and these two women embody those qualities.
