Allie Hughes
Katie is an excellent person to work with and has a fresh and professional approach to doing business. In my experience working with Katie we cooperatively developed a new website, she was my key point of contact for new communication strategizing and implementation and gave me the freedom to let my expertise and experience do great things for the organization. Katie's biggest strength as a supervisor is her ability to see the strengths in her staff and allow them to take ownership of their positions. This led to a team of people who felt committed and excited by their responsibilities. I would work for Katie again in a second, she is an asset to Napier and will be an asset to any organization she works for.
