Matt Collins
I've had the pleasure of working with Chantee as she designed a corporate university from scratch to aid the development of employees at MISO. Throughout the process Chantee has demonstrated a strategic view of the organization's needs, yet she also unfailingly executes the many tasks that accompany a project of this scope.
