Bio
Allen Patrick Payne
The semester I worked with Kellie she was Outstanding! While I was adjusting to the new position she was invaluable. When other seniors were not showing up to work she doubled her hours which did not cause here academic or quality of work to suffer. She completed many tasks that were outside her job description like creating a map tutorial, and aiding in creating a list of license types for the counties she was in charge of. She will be a valuable employee to any organization, and is HIGHLY motivated to grow professionally. The only negative I have is that she isn't still working for me, but with all great employees you realize they have to move on eventually.
