Cathy was my Account Manager while she was at Allstream and we worked together to deliver short-term and long-term solution for an organization comprised of 15 manufacturing sites across Canada. Cathy was always reliable and always delivered when I needed new solutions or simply recommendations for future technologies. She is very professional, knowledgeable but also friendly and personal which made it easy to build a good partnership with me and the organization. She always followed through her promises with a smile :). I would definitely recommend Cathy to any organization that is looking for a hard working, professional, team player individual. Thank you Cathy!

I supported Cathy as a Unified Communications Specialist for a number of years at Allstream. I found it easy to support Cathy because she was quite knowledgeable in the areas of Solution Selling, Unified Communications and Account Management. Cathy knows how to listen to customers and work with them to solve problems. She is focused on a "trusted advisor" approach rather than selling a product. I enjoyed working with her.
