^{Since the day I stepped into a Leadership training and had to give directions to Peedy to build something without me seeing it--many expletives were used to btw; I knew that you would be a huge part of my growth and journey. What an understatement. You are a wonderful person with a beautiful spirit. Leigh Ann, I am forever changed as a person and leader. You have a supernatural way of being what a leader needs. You are empathetic always, tough when necessary, and you push for us to think outside the box to solve a problem. You are a safe place, and you will be missed.}

^{Congratulations on all that you have done in your 13.5 years! I am so happy for this next leg of your journey! You are going to have a blast!! I know you will continue to change lives wherever you go.}

^{Safe travels and Cold Tequila!}

My hope for you is to have the best adventures and a splendid time at every direction you take. It is sad to see you go, however, it brings me comfort knowing that you are off enjoying life and the wonderful experiences you will share through your stories.

I'll never forget meeting you in person when you visited Team Miramar before the campus opened and you were with us in a confined space (closet) at an office building which was a lot of fun. I'll admit even the Leadership Bootcamp was fun. I wasn't sure at first, haha 😁 but I think we all bonded for the better. I won't forget that tight hug you gave me after the bootcamp was over. 🩷

Thank you for everything and for providing support for my campus!

Have fun out there! 😎

I am so grateful to have had you as a mentor and leader the past 3 years. Thank you for the guidance and support and thank you for helping me to grow and always keep being the best HR person I can be!

I will miss you - I hope you enjoy this next chapter; you deserve for it to be the best yet!

Sincerely,

Michelle Goettl

You have been a steady source of support for SO many people. A calm voice of wisdom in the face of really complicated situations.

You have been an open door for SO many people. A listening ear and source of information when it was needed most.

Find grace in knowing you made a long-lasting, positive difference.

The long hours, digging deep to find energy and perspective....ALL of it meant EVERYTHING to others in the moments they needed you most.

You gave all of this to me, and more.

Cheers to an excellent run my friend,

Jen Bergeron

Thank you for the years of support and guidance. Ten plus years and three campuses, you were always a great sounding board and partner in planning. Form the first interview with you at California Pizza and the years to follow, your leadership and partnership were both helpful and had everyone's best interest in mind. You stayed focused even through challenges with patience and grace which benefited everyone.

And, in non-challenging times, you provided great conversations for early morning oatmeal meetings, quality recipes for blueberry margaritas, tequila recommendations, New Smyrna Beach recommendations, car talk, dog talk, family talk, and so much more!

You will be missed; I wish you nothing but happiness and success in your future endeavors! Wherever you end up, one thing is for sure, they will be lucky to have you and better off for it.

Steve M.

All the best,

Thank you for being YOU and for being that angel that shepherds us (ever so gently) and teaching us along the way. The lessons I have learned from you are countless. You exemplify so much leadership and compassion in all that you do and your presence will be deeply missed. Thank you for making this journey so much fun, bringing in the laughs, the smiles, and a little bit of crazy fun. Wishing you the best in whatever new story you write. You will be so missed!

Thank you for being you, my friend, and an awesome partner!

You are the very best of what UTI is - kind, sincere, full of talent, and someone who changes the lives of everyone you meet. You were instrumental in my journey here and the work we do. It was an absolute pleasure to meet you, work with you, and get to know you.

Wow lady! Look at all these wonderful comments people are leaving you! What an incredible legacy you have left at UTI. Let me add my bit. THANK YOU for the many wonderful conversations we had over this past year. I treasure the mentorship. You will truly be missed.

I hope this next chapter is absolutely amazing! Pull out all the stops and have a grand adventure!

So many thoughts, memories and emotions!

Thank you! Brilliant! May we always stay a progmess.

I'm not sure where to start other than to say thank you for impacting my life and the lives of so many during your time at UTI. You epitomize our values and purpose, and you've been an incredible partner over the years. You've done more than I think anyone probably realizes, and you've left an indelible mark.

Please know you are valued, adored, appreciated, and respected deeply. I will miss you terribly and can't thank you enough for all you've done. You are one in a million, and I hope only the best as you navigate the next chapter!

I will be forever grateful of the love and care you have provided me over so many years at UTI. Your partnership and wisdom have left a lasting impression on my professional and personal life. You were always there whenever I needed you. There was never a time you weren't there which is a true representation of your character, willingness to engage and support others.

Your poise, your grace, your humor, your genuine ability to connect and reflect are just a few of the things I will always remember about you and our relationship. You are so special to me and clearly to so many others as well. Best of luck to you and your loved ones in your next chapter. Knowing you, I know it will be full of love and lots of laughter.

All my love and best to you my friend.

Kelly Ormsby

Cheers to your next chapter and adventures out there as we have so many lives to touch and to leave lifelong positive impressions.

Big hugs to you Leigh Ann 😊

I still remember one of my favorite exercises in a leadership summit was writing a key word on a rock to keep with us. I still have my rock in my office as a constant reminder of what's really important.

Today I share this rock with you, gratitude. When I think of all the support, coaching, partnership, and friendship over the last 13 1/2 years, all I can think of is how grateful I am that our paths crossed at this time. You have been a rock for me and I'm going to miss you tremendously.

I wish you all the happiness, joy, love, and peace that you so deserve. Go out and enjoy this next life adventure.

I am so excited for you and your next adventure. I am beyond thankful to you for our time together, your mentorship and your friendship. You have a wonderful way of enhancing those lives around you. You have helped me grow in my HR practice, and as a person and for that I am truly grateful for you. To say I'm going to miss you is an understatement.

Adventure Awaits You!

I really want to express what a loss this is for UTI, but I don't want to make you feel bad about leaving us. Instead, I will just express how grateful I am to you personally for all of the guidance, wisdom, and development you have provided me over the years. I have grown personally and professionally as a result of our time spent together and have been fortunate enough to be ready when opportunity presented itself. You played a very large part in that, and I will be forever grateful to you. I am happy to see that you will be spending some time enjoying life and seeing the world- you have certainly earned it. You will be missed!

-David Breen

There aren’t enough “thank you’s” in the world to express how grateful I am for getting to know you and work with you over my 10 years with UTI. Your support has truly meant the world to me and I will miss you dearly! Enjoy the next chapter!!

You truly care about others while managing the responsibilities to the organization. You are genuine and have been a trusted partner.

Thank you for all you have done to impact our organization! Your support means more to me than you will ever know! I am very happy for you and your new journey. I can't wait to hear about your adventures all over the world! Don't BEE a stranger!

Love always, Lisa

You have been such an amazing partner in my career and I don’t know how to put into words how much you’ve helped me. Thank you for always listening first and giving amazing guidance. Without you, it would have been extremely difficult. We’ve laughed together, we’ve cried together and that shows the strength of a relationship. I hope the next chapter is amazing for you because you deserve it. Enjoy and stay in touch 774-826-9026.

Thank you!
