“Michelle's unique combination of raw intelligence, work ethic, and core values will make her an asset to any team. I hired Michelle for an internship between her first and second years of business school and it was my privilege to work closely with her on several projects. Michelle accomplished more in 90 days than many would accomplish in 9 months. She took ownership of the goals we set together and delivered high-quality work on time. Further, she quickly developed productive relationships with internal and external stakeholders which made her more even more effective. Michelle's impact on our team was significantly greater than we expected from a "summer intern." I would strongly recommend Michelle for any role that requires business acumen, attention to detail, rigorous analysis, or relationship management. ”
