It's a pleasure to write a recommendation regarding the time that I worked with Caitlin while she was a Workplace Consultant at Atmosphere Commercial Interiors. Over the 3+ years that I've known and worked with Caitlin she is the utmost professional - striving to actually hear what her clients want and go above and beyond in providing effective solutions that meet and even exceed their needs. Even under the most stressful circumstances, Caitlin keeps a calm presence and works diligently to manage and find solutions to any obstacles that come her way. Additionally, her composed and professional manner aids in the success of every project and team that she is a part of. It was a pleasure working with her and I hope to get the chance to work with her again!
