“From week one of joining the strategy team at Character, Shelby established herself as a rock star. She’s an incredibly flexible strategist, equally talented at distilling impactful insights through stakeholder interviews or desk research as she is writing manifestos and nailing a big idea. I loved collaborating with her, and also loved letting her take the reins and lead projects on her own. Hire her!”
