 New face: Welcome, Office Services' Tyler Runyan!
Editor's note: Tyler Runyan will help Office Services with many things in Spokane, including supporting the onboarding of new folks assigned to the Spokane office.
What attracted you to Commerce?
I like that Commerce is uniquely situated to provide innovative solutions. It's a kind of conduit for cooperation among affiliated agencies to help build up communities in all of Washington, especially underserved communities. In short: Possibility.

PSRW fun is starting early
with a photo scavenger hunt!
Public Service Recognition Week (PSRW) will officially begin Monday, but we decided to go ahead and start in on the fun a little early!

You can find the whole lineup here in IntraCOM. (We will continue to update this page as more becomes available.)
Today, we are releasing our PSRW photo scavenger hunt, which you can complete from anywhere. If you'd like to share some of your work-appropriate scavenger hunt images during Coffee with Kendrick on Wednesday, May 4, please contact PSRW Planning Team Co-Lead Rebecca Stillings.
