Having had the opportunity to work with Jennifer for nearly 5 years, it is a privilege to recommend her as an outstanding supervisor and manager of people in the Technical and Customer Support space. Jennifer's calm demeanor and sincere customer attention set her apart as one of my top "go-to" managers to address any customer issue that needed significant and special attention. She is a true professional, and always willing to take on a challenge. If you have the opportunity to have her on your team, you will truly appreciate her trusting and capable leadership and friendship.
