Recognizing Exceptional Service
At the All-School Holiday Party that was held on Fri., December 2, Dean Paul Krebsbach recognized Grant Yano as the Outstanding Supervisor of the Year and Joanna Danielak as the Outstanding Staff Member of the Year.
Grant Yano has served the dental school as the Computer Services Manager for nearly 19 years. One of Grant’s most recent notable accomplishments was the launch of the new axiUm software, which is now being used by our general clinic and all the specialized clinics. His involvement and contribution in the successful transition from GSD to axiUm is immeasurable. In a position that is often overlooked until a crisis arises, Grant continually puts in the time and effort to make sure that projects are completed according to stakeholder’s requirements.
Joanna Danielak serves the dental school as an Administrative Assistant for the Section of Periodontics. She quickly learned her job duties and consistently exceeds job expectations. From managing faculty promotion packets to executing section events, Joanna is efficient and proactive with everything she does. In just two years as a full-time employee, she has become a valuable team member and the Section of Periodontics feels lucky to have her.
On behalf of the entire UCLA School of Dentistry, congratulations to Grant and Joanna on this well-deserved recognition.
