Heather is not only one of the nicest people you will ever meet, she is also a great IT person. On many occasions I have called on her at Mount Washington College for IT support and she reacted swiftly and confidently to fix any issue that I had, usually in a just a couple of minutes. She is a tremendous asset to have on your team.

As Chief of the Department of Safety & Facilities for Mount Washington College, I have the pleasure of working closely with Heather nearly everyday. I know first hand her untiring commitment and loyalty to the institution she has stayed with for many years. Heather is available to assist anyone, at anytime, and often provides assistance by calling or responding from home. Not only is she more than capable with PC's and Mac's, she has a work ethic that few employers see these days. It is a privilege to work with Heather, because I know that she is there to help whenever I need it, regardless of whether or not it is computer related. She adapts to changes frequently and easily, and works as a team player to help fulfill the organizations goals. I am honored to have the opportunity to recommend Heather as part of your team.
