While working as Workforce and Education Coordinator at the Anti-Recidivism Coalition, Carmen assisted with preparations of my resume and internship interview at NBCUniversal. In addition, she kept in contact with the early career recruiter at NBCU and checked on me weekly. Carmen was supportive in my goal to enter the workforce and wants me to succeed. I am grateful for her assistance. Carmen is highly skilled, professional, hands-on, caring, and a great person. That is why she has my recommendation.
