🎊 One Year Anniversary at Morrison: Time flies when you’re scaling operations and slaying deadlines.
Reflecting on my first year at MORRISON has been a wild ride of personal growth, teamwork, and just a little bit of imposter syndrome (let’s be honest—sometimes A LOT). From my first solo client call to submitting DOE proposals, I've learned what it means to grow, adapt, and excel under pressure.
Taking on new challenges, learning from my incredible team, and asking, “How can this be better?” has defined my journey. (Cue the eye-rolls from the team 😅). Turns out, my Working Genius of Wonder and Discernment was spot-on: an innate drive to improve, streamline, and find the right solutions to move projects forward.
🚀 Highlights of My Year:
🎯 Secured $23MM in grants with an 81% success rate—what a journey!
🤝 Supported my teammates through tight deadlines, crazy schedules, and some intense team bonding experiences.
💡 Launched new processes and updated internal systems, all while navigating the steep learning curve of grant writing.
📝 Conquered major grants like ERME, DOE, and VAPG, sometimes even while balancing personal milestones (like getting married and buying a house!).
🤝 Embraced our culture of support, encouragement, and humility.
I’m so grateful to my team for inspiring continuous improvement, creativity, and always bringing their A-game. Together, we've faced challenges, shared many laughs (and maybe a few tears), and transformed ideas into reality.
Here's to many more wins, learning experiences, and making the world a better place through our work at Morrison! 🥂✨
