Bio
Lucas (Luc) Gambacort
I had the pleasure of working alongside Shelby for the better part of ten months. Shelby demonstrated a high level of organization, scientific knowledge, and an amazing personality on a daily basis. She excels at all roles of a project; from back end development and writing instructional documents, to delivering workshops in front of large rooms of people. Shelby is a shining star in the workplace, and not only am I glad to have had the opportunity to work with her, I’m excited to what she does in the future! Couldn’t recommend an individual more!

I have had the pleasure of knowing Shelby for the last two years. Shelby has always impressed me with her positive attitude and passion to learn more. Her caring nature and nice personality allow her to work well with others in a team setting. I have attended several workshops where she was the facilitator and witnessed her openness to and empathy for the opinions, feelings and perspectives of others, along with excellent communication skills. I am certain that she is going to continue to do great in her future and can offer many strengths to any employer.
