"In the 7 years I’ve been working at Wentworth both as an Assistant Director for our Innovation + Entrepreneurship Center and now Lead Lab Technician, I can say without a doubt that Simon has stood out among the thousands of students I’ve engaged with when it comes to his leadership and personable skills. For someone like Simon who spends more time helping and caring for others, he truly deserves to be recognized for his dedication to making the world a better place."

"I have overseen Simon in his role as an Admissions Ambassador, and now Coordinator, on the Admissions Ambassador team at Wentworth Institute of Technology for the past three years. Simon has grown into a strong student leader the past three years and is one that newer members often look to for advice and guidance. He has consistently been a team member I trust to engage well with prospective students and families. Hiring him to lead the team of Admissions Ambassadors this year was an easy choice, and he has stepped into this leadership role effortlessly. Simon has stayed undoubtedly and unapologetically himself throughout his time as a student. He has pursued his interests, both inside and outside of his major, by taking part in or creating other student organizations, such as Financial Literacy Club or Colleges of the Fenway Skate Club. He has taken advantage of the different opportunities Wentworth provides their students and has made the most out of his time as an undergraduate student."

"I know Simon will dedicate himself completely to his education and his work. Simon’s work with our orientation programs required attention to detail, organization, frequent and clear communication, and patience. He is one of the most reliable students I have worked with in my six years at Wentworth, and he is always willing to help out with any project or task. Perhaps more important than Simon’s work ethic are his positive attitude and his ability to make others feel welcome and included. He takes a genuine interest in learning about other peoples’ passions, sharing his own with them, and doing so in a way that puts anyone he is talking to at ease. It is in Simon’s nature to jump right in, make connections, and seek out learning opportunities."
