LIVERMORE â When Mona Dreicer learned she had been tapped to receive one of the National Nuclear Security Administrationâs (NNSA) top awards, she had two reactions â she was surprised and she was honored.
The deputy director of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratoryâs (LLNL) Center for Global Security Research (CGSR) for six years until her retirement in 2020, Dreicer has been named a recipient of the NNSA Administratorâs Distinguished Service Gold Award.
âIt is the perfect capstone to my career,â Dreicer said.
CGSR Director Brad Roberts agreed.
âI am gratified that NNSA has chosen to recognize Mona in this way, he said. It is a richly deserved honor. As deputy director of CGSR, Mona played a leading role over the past few years in navigating a major remake of the center.
