Meet four JMT administrative professionals - Joanne Acevedo, Beverly Jackson, Natalie Jones, and Alison Moore - and learn why they chose the administrative career and how their work impacts life at JMT.

Administrative professionals are crucial to operations at JMT and help us "be better". They possess organizational skills that assist with deadlines of varying complexities and urgencies, provide solutions and workarounds for equipment and supplies, and hold institutional knowledge of JMT, its offices, and departments. Their interpersonal skills are key in addressing various questions and providing numerous other supports. They often wear multiple hats, being the heartbeat of an office or department, and are most aware of the team's pulse.
