Bio
Nina Corson
I worked with Wendy on an IT project that spanned multiple years. Wendy and I worked closely together in the implementation project team and Wendy is the consummate team mate. Her specialty in the project was in Change Management and she was always willing to dig in to the details and assist where ever necessary. She was also studying for her PMP certification at the same time and never let her stress show! I would recommend Wendy due to among many things, her dedication to the project and her intelligence to know what needs to get done.
