“I’d like to highly recommend Jo Kelly. Jo brought to the team a super work effort, a high level of professionalism, and enhanced our team’s ability to meet its sales goals. I believe Jo’s success stems from her experience as a National Team Athlete. Winning on the international stage demands clear vision, hard work and relentless passion for improvement. Jo brought these traits to my team. Her ability to adapt to workload, maintain priorities, and ensure the customer’s experience was exceptional is what I remember most about Jo.

I worked on hundreds of projects; each needing their own level of care. The nature of my work required a lot of attention to detail, which Jo excelled at providing. I specifically remember that a few of her suggestions on how to run my projects saved us time and our client money in the long run. I would happily work with Jo again as I consider her to be a valuable member of the team, who consistently achieved good results and delivers all expectations.”

Her level of experience makes her easy to work with as she can multi-task very well and also focus on an issue and help come up with good solutions. If I ever needed anything I knew I could count on Jo to come to my rescue. As clients can sometimes have schedules that change suddenly, Jo was always accomodating in helping with any information that I needed. She is honest and has a good personality. If there is any opportunity to work with her I would whole-heartedly recommend her. “
