Employee of the Month

Jamie Marble
Jamie Marble

Conference and Events Coordinator – Office of Auxiliary Services

"Jamie is a very kind, generous and thorough person. She has a sometimes monumental task of coordinating and setting up events all over campus and does it with a smile regardless of how hectic her day or week may be. She is always willing to go the extra mile to ensure that the client’s needs are met, including making sure that staff have all they need to facilitate their roles in any given event. Thank you, Jamie, for your attention to detail and continued efforts to ensure that NIC sets the bar high for quality and performance." - Andy Finney, Video Production Coordinator - IT Administrative Services

"I've worked with Jamie on three events in recent months and her dedication and attention to detail are really what took these from ordinary to extraordinary. The largest event was the Idaho Career and Technical Education Region 1 "Connect" Conference held in July. Jamie coordinated routinely with our CTE team and the state office over the months leading up to the event and was available throughout the five-day event; she made NIC shine for nearly 200 visitors as they attended meetings, dined, and gathered in several main-campus spaces as well as Parker CTE. Her personal attention made a big difference and left a great impression on NIC. Jamie's ever-helpful attitude and undeniable energy aided in welcoming a non-profit as they arranged rental space as well. Her mind was the right one to pick as we made plans for the upcoming "Rathdrum Rumble" car show; everything from how many trash cans to plan for, to the P.A. system and more. She's the right person in the right job making NIC a welcoming place for our community." - Patrick O’Halloran, Director - Special CTE Projects

"I genuinely appreciate Jamie's upbeat approach to life. She takes on every project with a "can do" attitude, making the impossible, possible. Jamie is such a hard worker and problem solver... simply a joy to work with. She is well deserving of the Sterling Silver Award! Thank you for your consideration." - DeAnn Johnson, Advisor - Completion and Transferability – Academic Support Services

"Jamie works long hours with great attention to detail. Even if the request is not part of her primary work responsibility, she makes sure that the client gets the help they need. Jamie is a great example of the North Idaho College spirit of excellence!" - Jay Carkhuff, Conference and Events Coordinator - Office of Auxiliary Services

"As I have gotten to know Jamie over the past couple of years, I have realized that she is so much more than an event services coordinator - and that is saying a lot because she is an amazing coordinator. She is also a talented theater set and NIC float creator and artist, a resource for fire code requirements, a problem solver, and a hard worker. If you asked me three phrases, I would use to describe Jamie they would be customer service-focused, organized and conscientious. If you gave me two more, they would be dedicated and fun to be around. Jamie’s focus it to provide the best experience possible, whether it be for a small internal meeting or a large external event. She is helpful, gracious and attentive to detail. I am so pleased that Jamie was selected for the sterling silver award. We are fortunate to have Jamie on our team." - Sarah Garcia, VP for Finance and Business Affairs - Office of Administrative Services

"Jamie Marble is a most deserving recipient of our November 2023 Sterling Silver Award! Jamie is multi-skilled and uses all her talents in her role as Event Services Coordinator. Jamie is often seen running from campus building to campus building as she prepares event space. Jamie always provides top-rated service to our customers. There is never any question that Jamie will complete the task, on-time, with superior quality. Jamie is also a very accomplished graphic artist – expertly painting our drama department production sets. Congratulations Jamie!" - Steve McGroarty, Senior Accountant - Auxiliary Services

"Jamie was one of the first people I got to work with when I started at NIC. I was in the Boswell Fishbowl and she was down the hall. Although our positions didn't necessarily require a lot of collaboration, our location often did. Jamie was welcoming and kind as I learned about my position and the intersections with hers and that has never not been the case. Jamie approaches each opportunity and challenge with kindness and grace. Even when there doesn't seem to be a possible way to squeeze another event onto this campus, she finds a way to accommodate everyone and support everyone. Jamie, quite simply is a sterling silver employee." - Amber Hasz, Assistant to the Dean - Office of Instruction

"Jamie has helped me a lot throughout my career at NIC. She is very hard-working and always keeps everyone at a high standard. She is caring and encourages me to be better at my job. She has been a good mentor and teacher. She cares about our department and her job. She is inspiring." - Frank Nichols, Event Technician - Schuler Auditorium
