“Kelly and I have worked together for 4.5 years at AWS where she was my Technical Advisor/Chief of Staff for our team of 4k+. As my TA, Kelly helped me strategically think through complex business problems, while contributing a deep understanding of how to execute at Amazon. Her unique background spans business, law, government, and the creative arts…which has been valuable because she brings multiple perspectives to solve business problems. For example, Kelly thought through how we would engage and connect our team of 4k+ employees around the globe. Particularly remarkable is Kelly’s ability to work across all levels of the company (S-Team to interns) and across different teams with enthusiasm, organization, and poise. Most recently, she was the program leader for the largest transformation of AWS history. From conception, to execution, to implementation, Kelly has relentlessly contributed. Overall, I highly recommend her as a leader and manager. Her super-powers – earning trust across all levels of the organization, helping tease out the best ideas from all, and delivering results for AWS – make her an invaluable member of the team and top talent at Amazon.”
