“I have had the great opportunity to work with Jessica and see first-hand her strong leadership and coaching skills. During her tenure, she was identified as a Subject Matter Expert for Quality Assurance records review and took the lead in collaboration with the training department to develop the content for a site wide training program. In collaboration with a Site Leader, she was instrumental in creating a new project coordinator role to better align with company efforts to streamline manufacturing operations. In addition, she utilized Lean Concepts and proposed an efficient process of manufacturing review of records to site Senior Leadership. Jessica’s industry experience along with her strong leadership and coaching skills, can provide a business or individual the resources needed to build on their success.”

| have seen many young professionals come and go. Jessica Highsmith is one individual | have worked with who uniquelystands out. During our time together, Jessica displayed great talents in program management across the board in several of our project teams. When we first met, | was immediately impressed with Jessica, but during the time we worked together, her understanding of project prioritization and recognizing key process efficiencies grew far more than that of her peers. It's not just her technical skills that impress me, however. She was a joy to work with because of her amazingly positive attitude and her relentless pursuit in find pragmatic solutions to several project issues. Her effective communication and transparency were also necessary and valued not just by myself, but by her peers, who often relied on her to get the job done.
