Oklahoma Department of Transportation employee Rachelle Killingsworth was recently recognized for her performance and named Division One’s Employee of the Quarter for the fourth quarter of 2016. The quarterly award recognizes hard work and is given to dedicated ODOT employees who consistently exhibit the highest standards in job performance.

Killingsworth is an Administrative Assistant II at the Checotah Interstate maintenance yard in Checotah and has worked for ODOT for four years. She was nominated anonymously by one of her colleagues.

“Rachelle goes above and beyond to provide the crew with detailed safety information that is always relevant to the type of work we’re doing at the time. She is a very efficient worker and great multitasker,” the anonymous coworker who nominated her said. “Her joy and positive attitude spills over to the rest of the crew. Even on a stressful day, you will always find Rachelle smiling and laughing.”

Killingsworth enjoys gardening and attending her children’s sporting events and is active in her church in Checotah. She and her husband, Denver, have three children.  

Division One is headquartered in Muskogee and oversees highway construction and maintenance in Adair, Cherokee, Haskell, McIntosh, Muskogee, Okmulgee, Sequoyah and Wagoner counties.
