I had the pleasure of watching Ella grow into an extremely competent, strategic HR partner during my tenure as the CHRO at Uniform Advantage. She consistently demonstrated the courage, drive and intellectual curiosity to learn and apply her technical expertise across a myriad of challenging HR issues and diverse client populations. What truly is remarkable about Ella is her unwavering positive attitude and calm demeanor in the face of overwhelming adversity. Her composure and professionalism are commendable and I am confident she will continue to add tremendous value to the HR Teams that are fortunate to have her as a member.

I had the pleasure of working with Ella during my time with Uniform Advantage Brands. Ella consistently delivered outstanding results on a variety of complex projects. These projects included launching our employee advisory groups, leading our employee communication strategy, taking on new roles in the restructuring of the HR department, managing our talent acquisition budget, and workforce planning for business initiatives, among others. In each of these, she exhibited great leadership and the ability to proactively calibrate priorities. She is very skilled in partnering with internal customers at remote locations and making them feel connected to the organization. I highly recommend Ella and would welcome the opportunity to work with her again.
