Ms. Cindy White, Administrative Assistant, has served NQPI for the past 3+ years. In many ways she has helped the institute to progress. This has included, for example, making arrangements for NQPI to attend the past Ohio Nanotechnology Summits, and other events such as NQPI's recent annual retreats held at Burr Oak Resort and Conference Center.

Cindy has also been extremely helpful in handling various budgetary issues, ordering items for members, and providing financial tracking/accounting for the Institute's research incentive (RI) account. Cindy's significant experience in working with the university has been of great benefit to NQPI, and it's been a pleasure working with her.

We hope that she has many happy and relaxing days as she moves into a well-deserved retirement! At the same time, we will greatly miss her valuable help and contributions. Thank you, Cindy.

- Arthur Smith, Director of NQPI
