I had the pleasure of working directly with Holly for 5 years in Contract Compliance. She was a wonderful colleague with great and innovative ideas and the follow through to implement them. She possesses a rare blend of IT and business knowledge which allows her to interact with customers at all ends of the spectrum. She excels at project management, process building and improvement and customer focus, always going above and beyond what was required of her. Besides that, she is truly just a pleasure to be around every day!

I had the pleasure of working with Holly for many years in the Telecom department before she came to work for me on the voice network team. Holly's energy, problem solving skills and willingness to learn were extremely valuable not only to the team but to the operations of the contact centers.
