I’ve had the pleasure of working with Carolyn for the last 10 years. She’s shown her professionalism and focus in everything she does, always attentive to details and a tireless planner. She’s grown from software development, to software and team leadership, architecture, program management, and project management. Constantly working to improve her skills, through education and taking on additional responsibilities, she has risen within her department to be a recognized and respected contributor, leader, and mentor. Frequently called upon for advice and analysis by other teams, Carolyn’s expertise and experience help build a solid foundation for new programs and projects. She’s highly motivated, a great organizer and communicator, and always maintains focused in hers and her teams’ work. She seeks out ways to improve herself and the team through research and applications of advanced methods for development and management. I’ve enjoyed seeing Carolyn grow in her expanding roles, and her recognition from her peers as well as the company’s leadership is a reflection of her value and what makes her a great fit in any organization.
