Today we share appreciation for Bill Kielhorn who is a Senior IT Technician with PVM IT.

A faculty member nominated Bill stating, “Bill is an exceptional member of the PVM team! He was instrumental in upgrading the office spaces for the large animal interns and residents. This took overhauling and replacing several computers and printers, and he completed these tasks very quickly. He has always been a kind person who responds to requests quickly and is always eager to help. We are so lucky to have him!!”
