It is not all that often that there is a public service team that embodies the spirit of the term, "public service". However, in King County, WA the Licensing team truly holds those words to heart. They are about the most caring group of individuals I have ever come across in any public service organization. They are dedicated to each customer they serve and take personal responsibility in ensuring that those customer's needs are met. They truly care about each individual as they serve them but also, they deeply care for the general public and the citizens of the county in which they serve. King County follows a set of values called, "True North" which encompasses the belief that the employees want to make King County a welcoming community where every person can thrive. Two of those values that the Licensing team holds close to their hearts are, "We focus on the customer" and "We respect all people". The Licensing team sets the bar for what outstanding public service should look like and should be applauded for their efforts! Great job King County Licensing, we all thank you for your dedication, kindness and service!

Thank you for your service.
It is with gratitude that I serve our state of North Dakota. I have been serving the state of ND for over 30 years and feel very fortunate. We do the best for our claimants and keep their needs at the forefront. I would like to thank Sheri Seil, my director for her support and encouragement and Kari Kramer and Brenda Rouse for their knowledge. And Toni Zankowski and her crew for the clerical duties that keep our agency running effectively. Also , to Kelly Lawson, our IT person who keeps everyone running smoothly and of course, the examiners for their hard work and dedication and without them, our agency would be in turmoil.
Thank You to our military, government leaders and teammates! Coming from the private sector, I have quickly learned the ways of the public sector. I appreciate those who have invested in me and I am proud to be part of this service.
