I had the pleasure of working with Lara and can confidently confirm that she is a reliable, professional, and hardworking individual. During the time we worked together, Lara consistently demonstrated excellent communication skills and a positive attitude. She is approachable, works well within a team, and is always willing to support others when needed. She was friendly with customers and built solid reports with them and owned other tasks tasks when given. Lara is dependable and takes responsibility for her work, often going above and beyond for customers to ensure tasks are completed to a high standard. She adapts quickly to new environments annd requirements per the business and shows a strong willingness to learn and improve. I would have no hesitation in recommending Lara for future opportunities and believe she would be a great asset to any team.
