Bio
Cristina Rose, MBA, APMP
It was a pleasure to work with Regan at MAXIMUS. She provided proposal coordination support to the Business Development department. She is very detailed oriented, motivated and not afraid of taking new and challenging tasks!
Leanne Kopp, CFRE
I had the real pleasure of working with Regan when she was the lead organizer for UrbaCity. As the benefiting charity, Regan went above and beyond any means to ensure the event was highly successful, that fundraising dollars were maximized and that Island Prostate Centre’s name became a more highly recognizable name within both the culture of Maximus and in the community as well. Regan is dedicated, thorough and a complete professional. It was a real joy to work alongside her positive attitude and nature.
