I had the pleasure of working with Heather for over 5 years at Peer 1 Network. She is the consummate team player and was always available to assist in her role as Client Relations Manager. Heather is a very dedicated, detail oriented worker. It was an absolute pleasure working with her.

I had the pleasure of working with Heather for four years at Peer 1. It would be tough to find a more dedicated client relations manager in any industry. She works extremely hard to successfully please both her clients and managers in a high pressure environment. Heather was an invaluable member of our team and would be an asset to any corporation.
