Nicole Geldart
I reported directly to Kim Kerker while she worked at Alley Cat Allies. She was a fantastic boss who was able to lead the entire Communications department while also collaborating with leadership and other departments. She is the best kind of boss, one that provides guidance as needed but also allows for personal creativity and growth within your own position. I highly recommend Kim as a strong leader for any team.
