USDA People Make a Difference

Wayne Brewer 
Computer Specialist
"I have tremendous creative freedom here. As a result, I've been able to implement a national information system to improve inventory managment that's saving the government millions of dollars every year. The people are all top-notch. Anyone looking for a career in computers will find exceptional opportunities here."

Denise Decker 
Employee Development Specialist
"My colleagues are very supportive. They focus on seeing the possiblities, not limitations. Up-to-date technology helps me. At USDA, I have a Braille computer and an optical scanner that conveys print to Braille. My influence reaches to every State, and I think my disability allows me to be of greater help to the people I counsel."

Nick Giacobbe 
Program Analyst
"Through management activities, we improve the quality of programs delivered throughout the country. This is truly a time of change as America prepares to enter the 21st century. I am proud to be a member of the administration team as we lead USDA forward to meet upcoming challenges."

Within USDA, administrative employees play a vital and diverse role. Departmental-level offices provide centralized leadership, coordination, and support for the policy and administrative functions of the Department, helping program agencies deliver services to all USDA customers and stakeholders
