While working with Colleen at Sunstone, I found her to always be enthusiastic, a team-player, hard-working, knowledgable, and honest. Without a doubt, Colleen is clear in her own thoughts and expresses herself thus. She most certainly strives to be a step ahead, and at all times she is thinking about how to best accomplish the task at hand. I thoroughly enjoyed working with her and would work with her again in a heartbeat.

Colleen was a champion of new and bold ideas at MCI. She understood the private school system well and had strong relationships with students, their parents and the constituency we served. Colleen is a driven and passionate individual and a loyal and dedicated employee.
