During my tenure with 20/20 I have had the pleasure of working with Chas on numerous occasions. Chas is exceptionally motivated and one of her strongest qualities among many is the fact that she will seek out work and ask to be involved instead of waiting to be asked. Chas has worked on several projects for me in her capacity as a Paralegal with 20/20 and I have been more than satisfied with her work product and her work ethic. I would recommend Chas for any role she strives to obtain and I would certainly welcome the opportunity to work with Chas if the opportunity comes about in the future.
