I have had the privilege of working with Maura for the past two years here at Redfin. I was hired to backfill her position as she moved to work on our college recruiting team and she played an integral part in my onboarding experience. Her knowledge of the recruitment process and detailed guides were instrumental in helping me learn the new position. It was clear that I had huge shoes to fill but Maura did an excellent job of setting me up for success! Since then, Maura’s career has grown immensely here at Redfin. She has tackled each new role as a challenge and has excelled at each step along the way. Maura is a pro at navigating complicated business situations with grace and expertise. She thrives in environments that are ever changing and can take complete chaos and turn it into a clear process. She is a high performing individual contributor but she is also an amazing teammate. She never hesitates to offer help and is constantly going above and beyond to assist others. She has done incredible things here at Redfin and I am looking forward to seeing all the things she will accomplish in her career. I hope I will be lucky enough to work with her again in the future!

Maura is smart and emotionally intelligent - she gets people and her insights make her effective with peers, customers, and candidates. She is highly adaptable, rolling with every change and rising to take on each new opportunity. As such, she is a positive force in her teams and often seen as the go-to peer and mentor. As a campus recruiter on my team, she was extremely successful both at recruiting and at running key elements of the campus recruiting & intern programs. She developed a strong technical acumen and was adept at navigating the schools she had ownership of. In my 2 years working with her she received two promotions and I know that trend will just continue wherever she is. Most of all, I'll miss her sense of humor and sharp wit! If you have her on your team, you're lucky - if not, hire her!
