Jennifer Evans
Gretchen is a fantastic leader whose positive impact on the business is a direct result of maintaining strong partnerships and a professional dedication to results. I can always count on Gretchen to provide real-time guidance and support no matter how busy her schedule might be.

Gretchen is the type of leader that one hopes for. Her ability to balance the needs of the business with the needs of her team is the best I've seen. She has consistently demonstrated a high level of proficiency at making tough decisions and challenging her team and partners in a way that elevates the level of work while maintaining a positive working environment. Gretchen has been very effective in the various roles in which I have worked with her and I would jump at the opportunity to work with her again.
