Unsung Power Hero: Illuminating Our Spaces

As many NIH’ers began returning to the Bethesda campus full time in recent weeks, NIH maintenance crews have been working overtime to make repairs and adjustments to lighting, cooling, heating and plumbing.

Robert Hoes, an elecrician with NIH’s Office of Research Facilities, is one of those unsung heroes troubleshooting and fixing wiring, lighting and other electrical issues. Hoes, who has worked at NIH for 33 years and counting, has done electrical work in just about every building on campus over the years.
