Bio
John Cecilia
I had the opportunity to work with Maggie in the Health Care sector of Kimberly-Clark Corporation. Maggie always exhibited a positive blend of technical knowledge and support along with an ability to work successfuly across all levels of the organization. She demonstrated a good understanding of recognizing the need for excellent customer service while managing a critical aspect of the product supply process.

It's a great honor to recommend Maggie. She is a well qualified scientist with excellent technical skills. While Maggie is also a hard working and thorough project manager, her most valuable strengths lies in her ability to inspire a group to come together around a very challenging goal. She inherited one quality resolution project from me, that required unusual persistence and resilience. Maggie managed the effort with grace and tenacity, and endeared herself to the team at the same time.
