Craig Stoughton
Senior Proposal Manager
Problem Solver & Great Work Ethic
​
As Senior Proposal Manager at Veyo, I found Jennifer to be absolutely indispensable as a resource in our efforts to respond to over 14 RFPs, worth millions of dollars, in a single year. At Veyo, we responded to numerous, complex bids including state Medicaid, MCO and Health Plan RFPs.. We made finalists for each RFx opportunity. Much of that success was due to Jennifer's support. Jennifer does not let deadline pressure get to her. She is steadfast and reliable. I depended on her greatly during my time at Veyo and much of Veyo's success is attributable to her. Her ability to problem solve in high stress situations is remarkable, Her work ethic is incomparable. She is a great communicator. She was instrumental in helping the Proposal Team at Veyo stay on course to meet deadlines and deliverables. As a certified Project Management Professional, she is committed to ensure all projects are handled with efficiency and deliverables are on time and within budget. I really enjoyed working with Jennifer and found her to be dependable, hard working, focused and organized.
