As the coordinator of the Grand Rapids 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb, it has been a pleasure working with Isabella over the past eight years. During this time our event has more than tripled in attendance, as well as funds raised for the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation.

 

Isabella is diligent, proficient, and eager to learn. This has allowed her to take on additional responsibility each year and learn all aspects of our event. She’s worked on marketing and promotion leading up to our event, operations the day of our event, and manages our social media platform throughout the year. I can trust that anything Isabella is working on will be done well.

Edwin Marino, Coordinator of the Grand Rapids 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb
