Kelly and I worked together for almost 5 years at NTG and I speak for multiple people when I say she is the real deal. We worked together weekly to manage three departments, support customers, and add new business for the company. Kelly cares for her people, and is a shining light to all around her!

Kelly is very good at her job and always comes through for our company on time critical shipments.
