Bio

I worked with Celeste for several years as a fellow consultant, Celeste was a joy to work with on a day to day basis and on every project that we worked on together. She is knowledgeable in the field of manufacturing and always relies on industry best practices when implementing an ERP solution. Celeste has outstanding interpersonal skills, and listens well. She was a key player of the team in conducting interviews with customers for the design phase, and in training during the implementation phase of a project. Nothing was ever too much trouble when assisting customers in her ERP support role. Even if it was outside of her area of expertise, she would find the right person to assist. I have no hesitation in recommending Celeste.

I had the pleasure of working with Celeste on various business process initiatives and was always impressed by the positive energy and attitude she brought to the team. She was able to easily transition between business analysis, consulting, and implementation - all the while being an exceptional client-facing ambassador. Energetic, caring, and fun by nature, she also project managed unforgettable year end functions that are still spoken of to this day!
