Vanessa worked as a part of my team at QVC as the Sr Engagement Partner for our Lancaster Distribution site. Vanessa is one of the best HR professionals I have had the privilege to work with. She has a strong work ethic, incredible organizational skills and most importantly the ability to form strong relationships in the workplace based on candor and trust.

She is a compassionate leader, strong coach that holds both herself and her team to a high standard. She took the lead with several large projects and brought keen insight and a drive for success that helped to keep our team focused on people, business and customers. She was a trusted advisor to our operations leaders who sought out her advise. It was a pleasure having her on my team.
