Liz is an exceptional leader and would serve as an incredible thought leader for any organization. Her large-scale strategic planning, risk analysis, organizational skills, and team time management guidance were key for our team as we worked to support and expand the educational technology footprint for 44,000 students. Her insights and thoughts on access and user experience drove the redesign of our website to better serve our clients. She worked closely with our vendors to ensure the products that we integrated into our systems were sound and stable. She led her team through testing, data collection, development, planning, and workforce balancing to ensure that those on our team felt they had the tools and space they needed to be successful but also had a platform to help that work get amplified. And nothing demonstrates adaptability more than when Liz helped guide her comparably small team through the initial phases of the pandemic, working to help move a large, land grant institution's academic activity entirely online. Where some other institutions had dedicated large teams to the effort, Liz's incredible leadership and strategic planning enabled her four-person team to support all educational technology activity throughout the campus closure. Liz's team was so integral to the campus shift that they were recognized by the institution with a Team Award for Excellence. Her innovation, insight, and leadership is exceptional and I enthusiastically recommend her to anyone seeking strong management and leadership.

I had the privilege of working under Liz during our implementation of a highly-detailed Monday.com system for technology portfolio management at the University of Arizona. Liz's expertise in project management and her meticulous approach were instrumental in the success of this implementation. Her ability to model and coach our team through her innovative process not only streamlined operations but also significantly contributed to the achievements of our award-winning team.

When I was hired at Pima Community College, I modified the Monday.com systems Liz designed, adapting them to our particular needs. Her systems remain the cornerstone of our technology management framework for the Academic Learning Technologies Team at Pima. It has not only improved efficiency but also garnered multiple national awards for excellence in technology management. Her systems and approach have also become the model for project management for the Center For Learning Technology at Pima Community College.

I highly recommend Liz for her exceptional project management skills, her ability to create impactful systems, her talents in innovating meaningful solutions to complex challenges, and her unwavering dedication to achieving excellence. She would be a valuable asset to any team looking to drive innovation, implement streamlined organization, and achieve operational excellence.

Liz and I worked together while I was a TPM [technical program manager] at PlayPosit and she was the Instructional Technology Manager at U of A. We met regularly, along with her team and the PlayPosit account manager, to discuss various topics such as upcoming feature work, product feedback, and bug status updates. Her initiative in switching her team over to project management tools like Monday helped to establish a clear and efficient line of communication between our companies, allowing us to address feedback and react to issues very quickly in comparison to other universities and companies with whom I partnered. It was a pleasure to work with Liz and given the opportunity, I'd leap at the chance to collaborate with her again.

When Liz transitioned out of our team as manager, she left behind an invaluable legacy in the form of detailed yet concise and easy to navigate documentation. Her comprehensive records became a commonly used reference, guiding us through tricky tasks and ensuring continuity in our operations. Liz's foresight and dedication to transparency empowered the team to maintain high standards and helped provide a seamless transition to new leadership. Her impact is still felt, and we are deeply grateful for the foundation she built, which continues to support and inspire us every day.

Liz is a tremendous addition to any team that she joins. She ensures her team has the skills, prioritization of goals, and space to get the work done. She takes care of her people while ensuring the organization is successful. I am very proud of Liz for taking the time to understand what she wants from her career and the type of work she wants to accomplish. She would be a great fit for a medium sized company or a start up looking to improve their operations management.

Liz will help you clarify what you want to accomplish and lead you and your teams to success. She will leverage project management processes combined with agile principles to lead cross functional teams. The problems worth solving always require multiple teams and contributors to solve, Liz will get them on the same page and bring them across the finish line.
