- As a mentor, Larice is extremely engaging, very informed, and most importantly, willing to listen. Going into this program, I felt I had already achieved a superior grasp of business writing, but I can say definitively that my writing and communication skills have grown under her tutelage. It is a pleasure to both know and work with Larice. She is very capable, willing to learn, and attentive to detail. Larice will use whatever resources are made available to ensure impeccable quality is a result of her endeavors. She is extremely resilient in the face of challenges and will do whatever it takes to accomplish her tasks, even if it means remaining in the office after many others have left. She is very organized, meticulous, and works well under pressure because of her ability to manage her time efficiently. Larice would be an exemplary addition to any team or organization in need of strong talent.

R. Bruce Barnett
Vice President - Broadridge Investor Communications Services
- Larice has a calm and patient demeanor, which helps to ease the tensions of the team members that she coaches. Larice assumed the Service Delivery role, receiving very little training and was given the monumental task of performing training, creating a newsletter, providing metrics to the executive team and rolling out a new program within the Organization. Her ability to overcome obstacles and continue to stay focused while providing outstanding leadership to her team and excellent service to our internal customers is why I believe that Larice will flourish in any field that she chooses.
