I had the pleasure of working with Monique during the development of the Regional Courtesy Services team at Comcast. While she only directly reported to me for a short period of time, she demonstrated a very positive attitude and eagerness to be a part of this team. Monique actively participated in discussions and provided feedback that was instrumental in setting up processes for this team. She is very knowledgeable in her role and takes initiative to apply her knowledge & skills to continue to improve processes. I think Monique would be a great asset to any company that is looking for a professional with a winning attitude, detail-oriented, fast-paced learner who can consistently exceed expectations.
