Bio
John Mitchell
I don't think I could say enough about how truly great it is to work with Nicole. Rarely have I encountered someone so resourceful, so quick, and so capable of managing and executing literally anything that comes her way. She is a standout performer on our broader Sales Strategy team who is consistently recognized for her contributions to the efforts of others. No matter where I am or what I'm doing, I will always look for an opportunity to bring Nicole on board.
