Colleagues describe him as "I have worked with Tyler in both a professional capacity as a project manager and as a volunteer on our picnic committee for the past five years. His positive attitude and willingness to help others have proven to foster the team atmosphere that the Jackson Laboratory strives to achieve. As a room supervisor, Tyler has facilitated complex and time sensitive projects to achieve our goals on schedule. His ability to understand the demands of each project and match those to the talents of his staff helped to contribute to fulfilling a life-long dream of one scientist at the Jackson Laboratory. Tyler coordinated the mouse production to send our mighty mice into space. There were several changes of schedule and a precise timeline to follow. He managed every change and not only met, but exceeded our goals for this project. As a project manager, I am confident when I send my projects to Tyler and his staff that not only will the objectives be met, but possibly exceeded. Tyler is highly capable of meeting his goals in higher education and to move forward with his career. His dedication and drive inspire those around him. " and "I have had the pleasure of supervising Tyler as my lead backup for a little over a year. Tyler has performed superbly in every role he took on in the room and has far exceeded expectations for productivity and mentorship. He has notably stood out during my time in the Breeding Services department as a confident leader. Tyler masters projects quickly with keen intellect and carries them out in a precise and error free manner. These tasks include responsibility for maintaining multiple mouse colonies and genotyping databases which have simple to complex mouse genotypes analyzing the results and strain data. As a backup he trained and led a team in my absence with ease and had a positive and encouraging attitude with his reports. Tyler also is determined to achieve more through higher education classes and the laboratory animal certifications. He successfully passed the first level of AALAS certification that show ones knowledge of basic laboratory husbandry to specie specific information and working on his next levels. His commitment to learning far exceeds my expectations and can see with his continued learning it will play a dynamic leadership role in his career. I give Tyler my highest recommendation as an extremely bright employee with an extraordinarily positive attitude and strong work ethic.
