“I’ve been lucky enough to work with Maggie for almost 5 years from the very early years at Automation Hero. From the get-go I was incredibly impressed with her fresh perspective. Coming from a completely different background only inspired her to lean in and take on the challenge of building out a net-new role (and department) for the company. She doesn’t shy away from challenges and takes them head on, but thoughtfully and thoroughly. Her skills as a project manager and cross-team collaborator are top-notch. She’s able to coordinate efforts across teams and ensure everyone is aligned toward achieving common goals. Maggie’s often been a sounding board for colleagues across the organization (myself too many times to count), which really built strong relationships (and trust for her HR role). Her open and candid communication style creates an environment where diverse perspectives are welcome, fostering a positive work environment that people want to be in. And, to top it all off, she’s incredibly passionate and empathetic. She won’t settle – it’s important to her to believe in what (or who) she’s working for (and toward). I have no doubt that she will make a lasting impact wherever she is.”
