Bio
Corey Steen
I have worked with Crystal for over three years on multiple teams, and she is one of the hardest working people I’ve ever had the privilege to work alongside. She is well organized, running a large support team for an incredibly complex and busy staffing service company with great efficiency and highly positive reviews. Her work ethic is overshadowed only by her empathy and initiative she takes with her users. I’ve personally witnessed multiple occasions where Crystal took time out of her personal life to go above and beyond to make sure her customers are taken care of and well. Crystal is the type of coworker who would instantly make any team better the minute she joined. She is a well respected and loved member of the team, and I’m thankful to have her as a colleague.

I have had the honor of working with Crystal on her professional development over the past year. Crystal’s dedication to her development no doubt pays huge dividends to the support she provides to her team of leaders. I would strongly recommend Crystal for any anyone looking for a passionate, motivated and servant leader to lead people leaders and help with employee development. Her willingness to open herself to feedback and the follow through she has displayed is proof of her outstanding leadership potential.
