Bio
Susan Simkins
I had the privilege of working closely with Chrissy while at California Closets Corporate. During that time Chrissy demonstrated a great balance of business discipline and organizational savvy, with a very fair, caring management style as Director of Human Resources. She had a strong ability to lead/navigate seamlessly through a very challenging business with much change, all the while remaining cool under pressure. She independently volunteered/led the organization in their first progression into ‘green thinking’, by establishing a corporate ‘green’ philosophy/culture, and leading outside consultant sessions to define the company’s long term sustainability strategies. She is a positive, committed and hard-working leader.

Christine is a fantastic HR Director. She has encyclopedic knowledge of virtually any area of this function. Her approach to issues and personnel is honest, straightforward, and compassionate. I adored working with her and would recommend her enthusiastically to any business looking for an HR Director.
