Title: NIST Recognizes Daniel Sokolowski for Excellence in Administration Supporting Quantum Initiatives
Summary:
NIST has awarded Daniel Sokolowski the Director’s Award for Excellence in Administration for his outstanding contributions to the Boulder site’s operations and support of the National Quantum Initiative. Sokolowski has been instrumental in coordinating complex renovation projects and managing over $18 million in contracts for the Boulder clean room, a critical resource for NIST’s quantum research.
In addition to his administrative work, Sokolowski has played a key role in the IARPA RAVEN program, a multi-million dollar effort to combat counterfeit electronics. Counterfeit components pose a significant threat to the development and operation of quantum systems, making this work crucial for advancing quantum technology.
Sokolowski’s exceptional communication skills and ability to translate complex laboratory requirements into practical solutions have been vital in ensuring the smooth operation of NIST’s quantum research facilities and initiatives.
