Holly played a crucial role in communications when the Bank rebranded from Sovereign to Santander. Her other priorities included writing communications for Senior Leadership, including a monthly letter for all U.S. employees from the CEO, launching and writing a popular weekly e-newsletter, writing articles for both the global and local Intranets (190,000 employees world-wide) and providing HR communications including communications around the launch of an employee engagement tool which continues to have great success. Holly was an extremely dedicated worker, a team player, a strategic thinker and an excellent writer. She is a pleasure to work with and would be an asset to any business.

Holly’s creative energy is effluent, her work ethic genuinely laudable, and her communication skills unsurpassed. She has a consummate ability to bring people and their stories to life. Her optimism, good cheer, and insight infuse her work with charm and wit. And all of this while under pressure and constant deadlines. Any company or organization that is lucky enough to have her will see how she brings out the best of everyone. I highly recommend her.

I worked with Holly during my years as Operations Manager of the Boston Pops. Her efforts representing the Arts Foundation of Cape Cod were superb, and the performances by the Orchestra at the Arts Foundation’s summer fund raising performances in Hyannis definitely were enhanced as a result of Holly’s efforts. I will always remember the positive experience I had working with Holly — her intelligence, energy, creativity, and generosity of spirit. She was an excellent collaborator and worked as if she were a dedicated employee of OUR organization. I am pleased to be able to recommend Holly both personally and professionally.

Holly is a gifted writer and creative communicator. She is always willing to go the extra mile and is never satisfied with anything less than spectacular results in her work. She is hard working, dependable and a genuine pleasure to work with joy. I would not hesitate to recommend her.

Holly was a valued member of my public relations office at the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles. Her duties during the launch of the extremely controversial safety and emissions program required the set up and coordination of several press events which she handled with ease because of her excellent relations with the Boston media. She was aggressive and thorough in her organization of these events and other projects such as the revision of the Massachusetts Drivers Manuel – the first revision in 20 years. The new manual won a national AAMVA award and has served as a model for several other states. Her organizational skills, self-motivation and positive attitude, coupled with her good press relationships made Holly an extremely valuable employee to me as Registrar in an agency that struggles with press relations from time to time. Her personality was pleasant and fun and she brought an enthusiasm which was infectious to those around her. I do not hesitate to give her my highest recommendation.

Holly is a passionate writer with a unique voice who creates stories employees really want to read. She makes the complicated easy to understand and employees really relate to her writing, as evidenced by the regular positive feedback we got from them (not to mention the multiple Ragan Awards she won). It was a joy to work with her.
