Bio
Chauncey Larsen
I had the opportunity to work with Dolores on several projects in the Microsoft Surface org. Dolores brings fresh perspective, a keen eye for opportunities to improve, and a proactive ethic that leads to getting stuff done. I appreciate Dolores's responsiveness and her willingness to listen, collaborate, and execute. She's also self-sufficient and fully capable of completing any task you put in front of her. Throw in her inclusivity, courage, and tenacity, and I find that she is an excellent peer to partner with and a solid fit for any role.

I had the pleasure of partnering with Dolores to develop the web marketing strategy for Microsoft Surface's warranty and protection offerings. Highly experienced and very capable, Dolores is a driven marketing leader who is passionate about putting the customer experience at the center of her work. Dolores provided strong stewardship to the project team by grounding us in business goals and customer value prop, which formed a bedrock for the web strategy. I loved her thoroughness and passion for getting things right, and her willingness to have tough conversations across the stakeholder group. Her project management expertise also ensured that our project was delivered on time and on budget. Finally, Dolores is a great puzzle solver and there is no problem too big or complex that she won't lean into.
