We both have a passion for helping people and I asked her to share her knowledge with those who had their employment impacted during COVID. Michelle's empathy and ability to connect with people both in-person and virtually is a true superpower. So happy to have worked with her and look forward to our next engagement!" and "I first had the opportunity to work with Michelle almost 15 years when we were both involved in an initiative to scale up training in Motivational Interviewing and other evidence-based psychotherapies throughout VA. We've been fellow travelers ever since. I've just recently had the pleasure of working with her on a project to design next-generation digital therapeutics for behavioral health and continue to be inspired by her competencies, her insights, and her sense of purpose. Many people talk about living their values in their professional life, but Michelle is actually doing it. I’m grateful to have her as a friend and colleague and offer her my enthusiastic and unqualified recommendation."
