I had the pleasure of working with Maura for many years with Comcast-Spectacor. As Director of Events for Comcast-Spectacor Charities/Flyers Charities, Maura was a dependable, loyal, and trustworthy colleague. We went through many high-pressure situations during our time working together. Whether it was handling a major donor or sponsor, finalizing a sale, or working with professional athletes, Maura was an absolute professional. She always maintained great relationships with everyone she met. Whether it was someone she was meeting for the first time, or someone she worked with for many years, people loved working with her. Maura created the Flyers Charities golf tournament which was a huge success thanks to her organizational skills. I highly recommend Maura!
