Bio
Kurt Gonzales
It is my pleasure to endorse Mia Pinsent as a project manager. I worked with her over several projects including a multi-year implementation of an electronic records management system. Mia successfully managed to bring projects in on time, on budget and with no major obstacles that were within her control. Mia handles the multiple personalities typically involved with larger projects very well. She has an enthusiastic, optimistic attitude that serves to motivate and energize project members. Mia is very calm and collected under pressure and shows excellent problem-solving skills. She is able to focus on the stated objectives of a project and prioritize the tasks necessary to accomplish the desired end result. It was unfortunate to see Mia leave our company, but it's good for her to realize the opportunities she has earned. If you need to discuss anything further about Mia, please free to reach out to me.
