Bio
Jeff Kristick
I worked with Amanda for two years, and managed her for one of those years. She is a top notch customer success professional. She is able to balance the needs of the customer with the needs of the company. She has a clear mission to keep the customer first, and do everything possible to make them happy. Her past experience as a project manager is valuable in working through delivery issues. She personally led the turn around of several key accounts at Meridian, and was frequently called out in our surveys by customers for her outstanding work. I would welcome the chance to work with Amanda again.
Melissa Kenig, MBA, PMP
Amanda is the most confident and effective customer relationship manager with whom I have had the pleasure of working. Her ability to navigate through substantive issues and secure resolution is in large part responsible for helping her realize growth between organizations. She is a true leader and a professional asset to any organization.
