Kelli brings together Human Resources expertise and real-world experience for unparalleled commitment and dedication. She has a very strong work ethic and I know this first hand from having worked with her in two different organizations. Kelli balances what is right for the employee and the company. Over the years, I have heard many stories from our employees that Kelli made a difference in their lives. In her current role, she provides valuable coaching and counseling to her business partners, is passionate about leadership and how it affects staff and performance. I strongly recommend Kelli for any opportunity as she would be an asset to any team.

Kelli is a highly skilled HR Professional & Leader. I had the pleasure of working with her for nearly two years as part of the start-up Senior Team at CuraScript and her insight and knowledge of the HR needs and regulations of an organization in an explosive growth mode, 40 to over 400, was very impressive. She possesses the HR knowledge, business skills and real life experience to succeed in the most challenging HR situations. Kelli has a great understanding of the needs and challenges of businesses in many different venues from Medical/Pharmaceutical to Engineering. She knows how to balance competing stakeholder agendas, see the big picture, and accomplish great thing for her organization. Kelli’s leadership skills and approachable style allows her to successfully manage complex HR challenges and lead others, even in very stressful times, all while building strong relationships with colleagues and staff alike. I am very happy to have had the opportunity to work with Kelli and would gladly do so once again if given the chance, I highly recommend her.
