Unsung Heroes: Janet Coon

We would like to nominate Janet Coon as an Unsung Hero of NEOMED. Janet exemplifies what it means to be an invaluable and selfless team player, consistently supporting our team and organization.

As the Special Assistant to the President and Secretary of the Board of Trustees, Janet ensures every responsibility is handled seamlessly and professionally while always finding time to think of others. She has earned the affectionate title of “office mom,” always ready to lend a helping hand, offer advice or provide comfort during challenging times. Janet ensures everyone feels supported and valued, while also being the go-to fixer with the ability to solve any problem. Whether it’s offering wisdom, sharing practical solutions or simply having just the right thing on hand, she is a comforting presence and the anchor of the President’s Office and strategy team.

Thank you, Janet, for everything you do; you are truly appreciated!
