Working with Jennifer during her time at Four Seasons was a most pleasant experience. It was wonderful having someone who genuinely cared and engaged in the overall business relationship between our organizations. She would not hesitate to take the extra steps necessary to completely understand her clients' needs. Jennifer was fair in negotiations and trusting in all areas of contracting with us; leaving a lasting, mutually beneficial relationship and partnership. She conducted business with complete professionalism and respect. I would recommend working with her in any area of business she is in. She has the skills to quickly identify the best areas of need and working together.
