"Jo-Ann is rock solid. She was referred by a trusted internal colleague for a partner marketing position on my team and I was impressed from day one. Jo-Ann is a savvy marketer and an excellent collaborator. She helped to establish process and service level of agreements with the partners and quickly gained trust and credibility with partner sales team.
