  • “Ellen’s ability to drive implementation of the vision Gore had was nothing short of amazing. Ellen would constantly evaluate the solutions being provided by Bluecadet to confirm that they were delivering on the highest standard. She understood and gave attention to every detail amid a very complex project. She worked tirelessly to prioritize our needs while coordinating with many other vendors that we had partnered with to complete the project on time and within budget… Ellen’s energy is boundless and her knack for driving difficult discussions, providing healthy challenge and delivering strong feedback all while remaining positive and productive is extraordinary. She truly cared about the success of our project and the results show.”
