Bio
Teresa Polli
It is with pleasure that I provide this reference for Troy Hudgson. Troy was my manager from June 2010 until May 2012. He took on the role of V.P. Marketing at a time when our team had not had a stable manager for several months and was frankly quite disjointed. He was able to provide the stability, uplifting morale and direction that was desperately needed to create a high performing team. Troy had a great ability to recognize the strengths in his team and utilize them to their fullest extent. He brought enthusiasm and high energy to work every day. Troy was relied upon by our top management for special projects and strategy because of his strong business aptitude. I would highly recommend Troy to any company that needs a strong leader to motivate and set a course for a team, as well as provide strong support for their business's overall success.

Troy is an exceptionally skilled business leader who combines a keen business intellect with a gregarious communication style. In my time working with Troy, he never hesitated to tackle difficult business issues and always presented a deft mastery of the most important details to provide analysis and recommendations that we well-thought through as well as on point. In addition to a sharp business intellect, Troy also has a warm and outgoing personality which aids him both in collecting information as well as presenting it in an unbiased yet clear way.
