Kathy Bray Retires from DTI
April 1, 2006 (Springville, UT) Digital Technology International has announced that Kathy Bray, technical writer for DTI, has retired after 19 years with the company. Bray has served in several capacities at DTI including; training manager, documentation manager, marketing executive, project manager, and customer support manager.
Bray was hired by DTI as a technical writer in 1987. Her first assignment was to complete a DisplayAd Builder manual. She had three weeks to do it. After that she created DTU, a user certification program. As technical writer manager she was in charge of producing all sales materials, ad, manuals, marketing brochures and trade show materials. These are just a few of the contributions Bray has made over the years.
“Kathy has contributed to the success of DTI in many different ways. Years ago when we were much smaller, she was willing and able to wear many different hats. As we grew, she was willing to adjust her role to fit wherever she could contribute most,” said Don Oldham, CEO of DTI. “She has been loyal, very capable, and always with a great attitude; the model of a great employee.”
Before coming to DTI, Bray worked for Sunrider, an herb company, as a writer. She was responsible for all of the company’s literature. Before that she worked for a print shop and prior to that, she owned her own print shop in California where she handled advertising, graphic layout and design.
“Kathy has been at the heart and pulse of DTI operations for many years. She played her role in many DTI “firsts” like core product documentation, trainer certification and project management, said Jeff Carpenter, Vice President of Operations for DTI.
“Kathy always puts a signature “personal” stamp on everything she does. Bray has touched literally thousands of individuals throughout the newspaper industry whether they have known it or not. Here at DTI, every individual has been touched for good by Kathy and we are proud to know it and recognized it. While we are quick to wish Kathy every joy and happiness in her retirement, we are also quick to observe that she will be dearly missed.”
Bray said she plans to spend more time with Ray, her husband of 45 years, as well as, their children, grandchildren and great–grandchildren. She said she also plans to work on her family history and help her husband write children’s books.
