Ciara has a knack for finding a way to cut through the noise, placing her team's full focus on what needs to be delivered and how to get there. Always engaging, always professional and always supportive, Ciara brings to bear a skill set that she deftly adapts to the task at hand. I've no doubt that our paths will cross again and I'm looking forward to it!

I had the pleasure of working with Ciara for over a year in BlueBridge Technologies. A creative, extremely hard working and Strategic thinker, Ciara’s problem-solving capabilities, personality and can-do attitude made a huge impact on the companies’ success. Ciara’s ability to operate cross-functionally and to handle multiple projects resulted in a boost in the productivity level of the whole team within BlueBridge Technologies. Ciara is an excellent business lead, results-focused and equally comfortable rolling up her sleeves as she is mentoring teammates and leadership. Always professional and positive when dealing with employees/customers/clients and constantly going out of her way to help others and bring in new business. Her attention to detail and eye for design was outstanding and she always made working on projects together so easy and enjoyable. I’m delighted I had the chance to work and learn so much from her. I would highly recommend Ciara and hope that we will work together again in the future.
