In honor of Veterans Day, Nevro salutes those who have served in the US Armed Forces. We'd like to give the spotlight to Nicole Marie, our Sr. Operations Partner and member of the People Team. Nicole entered the army in 1988 as an enlisted soldier (reservist) stationed in Oakland, California for eight years. Read more why it’s important to stand strong and proud.
This Veterans Day, we are saluting all Veterans, Reservists, and Active Duty Service Members who have served in the US Armed Forces. Veterans bring such a rich perspective to Nevro that is highly respected by patients, customers and colleagues alike. We are proud to spotlight one of our team members, Jim Finn, who is an Area Sales Representative in the San Antonio, Texas region. In addition to Jim’s full-time job in the private sector, he is also an officer in the U.S. Army Reserves, most recently in Civil Affairs responsible for domestic and international infrastructure capabilities.
In addition to talented team members, Nevro has some very creative folks who scared up some spooktacular Halloween spirit this year. Check out some of our team membersâ most recent #innovations at our first-ever, virtual Halloween costume and pumpkin carving contests. Looks like a scary good time was had by all.
Meet Janel Caruz, our newly hired HRBP Director. Last week, Janel and her family volunteered at the Farmworker Supply Caravan which provides emergency supplies to CA farmworkers who are working during the heatwaves, wildfire smoke and COVID. These often-forgotten essential workers help maintain our nation's food supply and for Janel and her family, this was one way they could help farmworker families and give back. This organization is near and dear to Janel's heart because she is the granddaughter of farmworkers who were members of the United Farm Workers and she heard their stories and understands the hard work, long hours and little pay field workers experience. They sorted and packed foods and PPE which the farm workers are in desperate need of having been ravaged by COVID. They sang De Colores, a tradition of the farmworkers - uplifting ALL with messages of peace and hope. AND they drove in the caravan -in cars decorated in words of thanks - delivering the donations. The event culminated with an heartfelt performance by El Teatro Campesino.
For those of us seeking career inspiration, advice, or just some camaraderie, we got it last week during our Women in Leadership Panel Discussion where Nevro women leaders talked success strategies. Many thanks to Kate Willis (Regional Sales Director) for facilitating such a lively discussion with panelists Niamh Pellegrini (Chief Commercial Officer), Caren Carr Frazier (Area Vice President, Sales), Barkha Raisoni (Associated Director, Connected Health) and Namitha Natasekhar (Manager, Manufacturing Engineer) who shared their professional journeys and advice with us.
Our team members are joined by their kids while working from home. From letting our kids pop into a Zoom meeting to say hello to supporting them during Distance Learning to just driving us up the wall- there's never a dull moment in a household with kids! Shout out to the kids (big or small!) who continue to bring fun, creativity and spunk to our busy Nevro work lives.
At Nevro, we understand it's important to take time to unwind, reflect and refresh during this stressful time.
