Getting to Know Your Information Technology (IT) Team
You know your IT Operations Team: Dinka Keown, Kouakou Kossonou, Paul Lasorsa, Granville Owens, Matt Palmer,
Tracy Ray, Mike Veira and Kym Vrooman for supporting onboarding/offboarding, Office 365, cell phones, Thales
Scanners, NemoQ, Network connectivity and Security. One thing you may not know about the team is they all have
gardening in common.
If you walk through the IT department, you get that. Their Division is filled with plants, and this Team knows their
stuff!
Kouakou has recently planted fruit trees which include Kumquat, Persimmon, Loquat and Plum trees.
Tracy has a beautiful flower garden to attract pollinators, bees and butterflies.
Paul concentrates on his beautifully manicured yard.
Kym and Matt grow vegetables in their hydroponic growers.
Granville is part of a community garden and grows herbs.
Dinka has a colorful container garden.
Mike, who was not a gardener at the time of this article was gifted a blueberry tree by his team!
Thank you IT Ops Team for sharing your green thumbs with us!
Kym and the Operations Team present Mike with a blueberry bush to jump start his gardening!
