    “Nancy is one the most influential people I have ever met or had the opportunity to partner with. In the work force we need trail blazers like Nancy, to help us recognize ways to improve and help the under represented population. Nancy is personable and empathetic to those in the workforce who need a voice to help build inclusivity. I am grateful to have worked along side Nancy on projects and be a part of the DEIB movement.”

    “I was introduced to Nancy when I supported and assisted her in expanding her DEI team. We partnered together to hire a DEI Manager and Nancy was the model Hiring Manager you want to support. Nancy was responsive and was open to connecting with talent at varying levels based on the insights shared. Her openness allowed us to cast a wide net, but also an opportunity to build a strong fruitful relationship (this is a Recruiter's dream). 😊 Having the opportunity to work with someone like Nancy whose passion is to create and pursue change, allows us all to want to achieve more! It was a pleasure working with Nancy on the recruitment side and also as an Executive partner/stakeholder to ensure diversity is interwoven into the recruitment/TA process. I have no doubt as Boehringer Ingelheim continues to prioritize their strategic focus and partnership on DEI and with Nancy at the helm, she will inform change with value and innovation! I recommend Nancy for all Executive C-Suite/ leadership roles!”
