Letter of Recommendation

Michael T. Parker Shift Consulting Group 3935 Whitehall Road Sandy Hook, VA 23153 February 12, 2022 To Whom it May Concern: Several years ago, prior to the pandemic, I had the pleasure of working with Alexis Bernard. I started an ambitious business project in the Western Tidewater area with a significant investment of time and financial resources. In my attempt to build a team to complete the project, I met Alexis and welcomed her to our group in an internship role. From the very beginning of my working relationship with Alexis, it became clear that she is a person that exceeds all expectations with regard to professionalism, work ethic and emotional maturity. Any task or assignment given to Alexis on my project was completed in a manner that surpassed what I would expect from even a veteran staff member. Alexis impressed me at every phase of our working relationship and that made a lasting impact. I am honored that we have stayed in touch and that she asked me to participate in her application process for graduate school. I am writing to offer my highest recommendation for Alexis as part of her journey toward a graduate degree. The characteristics that I described above are not often taught but rather inherent for a student or employee who possesses a high level of integrity. Alexis exudes integrity and for this reason she will continue to be successful personally and professionally. Alexis Bernard is exactly the type of person that any graduate school should welcome into its study body. Through the years I have had the pleasure of working with many successful people. Those people are not successful by accident. Alexis Bernard fits the same profile and demonstrates the same traits that I have found in many of the most successful leaders that I have met in my career. As a decorated veteran of the U.S. Navy and a successful Executive-level business leader for many years, the highest compliment I can give a former team member is my willingness to hire them into future roles. If I were starting a new team today, I would certainly offer a role to Alexis Bernard and I would have nothing but confidence in doing so. This young lady is talented, driven and a pleasure to work with…she will represent your school in a manner that shines positively on all involved. Please feel free to contact me directly with follow-up questions about my recommendation for Alexis. I can be reached via phone at 434.430.6555 or by email at mparker70@icloud.com .

Sincerely,

Michael T. Parker Co-Founder and Managing Partner Shift Consulting Group
