Bio
Jay Castellano
Kelly and I had a few opportunities to work together in the City of San Jose, and each time she did a great job of meeting customer needs and of representing the City and the Human Resources Department. Just one of our many experiences together was in trying to fill a high number of vacant positions during a time when the City struggled to get enough job applicants. Kelly was instrumental in developing new strategic distribution channels for marketing and communications that led to 200 new hires in six months across a broad spectrum of job classifications. Very successful effort! Kelly is a wonderful person with whom to work and a great employee who has solid foundational skills, particularly communications and technical knowledge. Kelly is someone who delivers on customer needs and maintains effective partnerships with stakeholders.

I had the pleasure of working with Kelly while we were employed at Mineta San Jose International Airport. Kelly was instrumental in recruiting me to work there. Kelly was very knowledgeable of City policies and procedures which was the reason why she was transferred to the Airport. Her expertise was needed to make necessary staff changes. Kelly was a consummate professional and also had a very good sense of humor. I would welcome the opportunity to work with her again. She has since left the Airport and the City for a promotional opportunity at the Santa Clara Valley Water District.
