Herman says one of the things he enjoys most about working at NDPTC is the people. “I enjoy working with my coworkers,” he shared, reflecting on the supportive and collaborative environment that makes each day meaningful.
One of his most memorable experiences came early in his time with NDPTC during a conference in Orlando, Florida. The day before his return flight, a tornado warning was issued for a nearby city, an unfamiliar experience for someone from Hawaiʻi. “I wasn’t sure what to expect or what to do,” he recalled. Fortunately, the warning was downgraded later that evening, and he was able to fly home safely the next day.
Something people might be surprised to learn about Herman is that he is deaf in one ear, but you can always count on him to be listening. Outside of work, he enjoys spending time with family and friends, playing video games, and going on outings with his wife and daughter.
