Kelley is phenomenal. I highly recommend her for any leadership position in project management or operations - especially in cybersecurity. She's incredibly valuable.

Kelley is amazing at what she does. She is incredibly organized and detail oriented.

One thing that makes her unique is she puts a lot of effort into understanding the projects and tasks at hand, spanning sales, marketing, or technical domains. Her dedication to understanding the intricacies of each project allows her to effectively prioritize tasks across multiple teams, ensuring everyone is rowing in the same direction.

Kelley also has an innate ability to identify areas that can use some extra organization and applies her skills to streamline necessary processes and procedures.

Kelley's delivery mindset and action-orientation truly set her apart. Kelley is the player/coach that will identify what needs to be done, rally the team, get hands-on in the solution, and deliver. I've witnessed Kelley's successes with this approach across multiple enterprise-scale initiatives.

Kelley is a difference maker, a wonderful colleague, and someone I truly trust.

—Jake Benardot, Distinguished Sales Engineer, Salesforce

Kelley's ability to organize, keep people on track and drive things forward is unparalleled with anyone I've worked with. Kelley is able to follow the technical details of our work, which makes communicating to our client and tracking work in Jira much more effective. I really enjoy working with Kelley and know that I can rely on her to get stuff done and jump in where she identifies gaps to help move the entire team in the right direction rather than staying in an isolated lane of responsibility.

— Jennifer Sheppard, Solutions Architect, Booz Allen Hamilton 

Kelley is one of, if not the, most thorough, organized, and detailed people I know. Not only that, but she is excellent at writing software requirements that both stakeholders and developers can work from. She has a knack for finding the right level of details needed for various situations and adapts as needed. I would easily put her in the top 1% of people that I've been able to work with throughout my career

— Patrick Hutchinson, VP of Technology, CI&T

Kelley has a natural ability supporting SaaS engineering teams, she is always front and center engaging the customer, thinking logically, and developing creative solutions to complex problems. She is detail oriented and passionate about her work. Her initiatives are always top quality with few bugs. She understands the value of testing and takes the time to test and retest before releasing her work to the production environment. In many instances Kelley was placed in situations where it would be difficult for anyone to succeed, and she never let me down.

— Justin Boykin, Director of Information Technology, Olo

Kelley was the key to making this product happen. She not only kept ME focused, organized, and accountable, but she did the same for the ENTIRE team. There were/are a lot of extremely talented people on this project, and I can't imagine where we would have been on launch day without any of them. With that said, Kelley was the organizer, wrangler, and mercenary COO that was the difference maker and made sure we crossed the finish line all the way until the end. 

Saying I give Kelley my full recommendation wouldn't communicate how vital and valuable she was to this process. Couldn't have done it without her and achieved the same results.
