Catherine Hamilton is a Civic Tech | Customer Success | Team Management | Business Operations | Account Management at Nava. Colleagues describe her as "Catherine exudes strong work ethic and tireless grit when leading business development. I’ve seen her wear multiple hats in service of our organization—all for the communities we sought to support while both working at Alluma.
When Alluma was starting to engage organizations to sell our newest product along with our general professional services, Catherine held the reigns for a number of different leads (not just a handful, not just two handfuls). I watched her double up on all her skills almost overnight to turn leads into business for the company. It takes true commitment to elevate yourself to meet demands, and Catherine is no stranger to doing that to make sure her teams find success. In the end, she helped us develop our pipeline and win contracts.
Despite her hard skills and experience in making things happen, it’s her kindness and patience that is most unforgettable. Her demeanor is empathetic and authentic, even while dealing with deadlines and endless workstreams. It’s this energy and warmth that makes people just want to be around her—including myself.
She is an asset to any company, any team, and frankly anywhere." and "Catherine is the strongest manager I've worked with in my 12 year career. I joined her team as our two organizations went through a prolonged and challenging merger. As dynamics shifted around us nearly daily, Catherine created a culture of unity and focus on our team. She set clear expectations for the job, sought out the organizational supports I needed to do good work, and helped me view it all through the lens of learning and growth. I felt valued and inspired on Catherine's team, and I know she will infuse that spirit into any team and organization she serves."
