In Jevon's own words (Transcript):

My name is Jevon. I'm the lead technologist in the interventional department of Sibley Hospital, which goes under imaging services.

I've been at Sibley 18 years -- I know I probably look like I'm a baby. Sibley has been great to me. They allow me to advance as I got along the way. Because I actually started out here as a clerk, as a file clerk. Then I went to school, which Sibley does offer tuition assistance, which helped me to obtain a degree and allow me to get where I am today.

I feel like a family, actually. Everybody's great. The type of person I am, I just like to see everybody smile, keep a smile in their face. So, I kind of do a lot of joking and playing, you know just to keep people happy.

How old are you? How old am I? 36. Wow. Yeah, I look young, don't I?

And a lot of patients can see that that first impression means a lot. If you come with a smile, they're like OK, I'm in good hands.

Sibley actually is quite diverse here. Many different cultures. I actually have learned a lot. In the years that I've been here as well from the different cultures. So it's a great environment, it just allow you to advance and it just allows you to grow -- see other things, expand, move on if you need to. I haven't had anyone holding me back or anything. It's just been a great place to work.
