Cole Camplese

Vice President of Technology and CIO

"I have used Copilot for quite some time, but the training has pushed me to use it daily."

Cole has been using Copilot for quite some time and finds it seamlessly integrates into daily workflows. The training has encouraged Cole to use Copilot daily, automating routine tasks, summarizing meetings, creating documents, analyzing data, and assisting with research. Cole starts the day with a stored prompt that provides a catch-up of unread emails, documents to review, and follow-up reminders. This has resulted in significant time savings, greater productivity, and the ability to get to the right questions faster. Despite some struggles with app-specific uses, Cole's overall experience with Copilot has been very positive.
