What People Say About Charise

“I worked very closely with Charise as the recruiter for the divisions she supported at PPFA, and she was an incredibly valuable partner, supporter, and coach to my work and me personally. I was not a traditional “HR” person, so it was really helpful to have her expertise to guide me. She was also very good at navigating a highly complicated terrain, so I really felt good about having a colleague to support me and understand the pitfalls we frequently faced.” – SJ Donofrio, Administrative & Operations Project Manager Spruce Street Compliance

“Charise is a highly committed, creative and enthusiastic Human Resources professional. It was great to report to her as she was able to build a close relationship with me and my peers, despite of the big challenge of managing a diverse team across different regions. As my direct manager she engaged and inspired me to achieve better results, as she was not only interested in the company’s bottom line, but also in her team’s professional growth.” – Marcia Lassance, Chief Human Resources Grupo CVLB

“You always were an amazing talent and person!” – Matt Trautwein, The Michaels Companies, Inc. Director
