I enjoy working with Sterrin and hope to continue doing so for a long time to come.”

“Anyone can be a fund-raiser. Few can be a friend-raiser, and even fewer can be a true fun-raiser. As a first-responder with the American Red Cross during 9-11, to the most glamorous International Ball that exceeded expectations — Sterrin is a great friend who makes raising funds fun!”
“I was a private sector stakeholder on a major social responsibility initiative led by Sterrin while she was with the American Red Cross. I found her ability to establish strong relationships with me and with my colleagues outstanding, and her articulation of how ideas could take form within shared objectives formed the direction of strategies, programs and campaigns that resonated with our audiences.”
“Sterrin understands how to get things done and is a powerful organizational source. Her passion for quality and leadership are some of her most outstanding qualities. I would recommend her for any complex organizational project.”
