"Yerkes is such a magnet! I felt it the first time I stepped into the building. Because of the astounding people who worked here and what we’re currently working on, it is easy to understand why I still feel it every day. I’m proud to be a minuscule part of this grand story. Saying I love my job is truly an understatement."
