Bio
Alec W.
I could tell Kristi was going to be a great intern at Leidos from our first conversation, and she did not disappoint. Although I did not directly lead her projects, I did interview and help hire her and oftentimes provided technical advice and suggestions on her projects. Kristi is a very quick study. She was able to pick up new software and systems, understand their inner workings, seek out tasks to work on, and successfully contribute in a short time. She especially shined in the planning and application phases of the project as she weighed various options, conversed with cross-functional team members, and then prototyped a variety of designs. She holds herself and others to high standards, and in my opinion she meets them. Kristi will be a strong contributor in any number of industries and occupations.
