Gary G.
Jennifer and I worked together for over 4 years while in my present position as
Kevin MacPherson
Jennifer was a great pleasure to work with. She was always on the ball and really cared for her clients and worked very hard to ensure there needs were met. Jennifer is a great asset to any company and I would highly recommend her. I wish you all the best and I really hope we cross paths again!
Laura Marie Camozzi
Master of Excel Guru of all things Radio, and honestly who knows what else. With a manicured touch of her quick clickin fingers Ms. Jennifer Pidgen can conquer any challenge. This multi-disciplined motivational manager can creatively kick any goals to the sky! Maximizing profits, juggling a team of plenty, and all with a sparkling smile. Her compassion for those around her is palpable- she invests in her team and inspires them to do their best every day, by leading by example. She may be analytical but she ain’t sitting home counting beans… She’za sky diving, tough muddering, wonder woman! If you ever are lucky enough to have her by your side she’ll take you further than you ever thought you could go. (if you want to take me literally …it still works, she also drives like the next Danica Patrick) Joking aside, Thank you for all you have done for me over my 3 years at Vistek. You have taught me so much. If I am lucky enough to take a fraction of your knowledge with me… I know I’ll be ok.
