We know good people.

by Allison

You could ask me every day of the week what I love most about my job and I would probably give you a different answer. What you would find, however, is that almost every answer I could possibly give will have something to do with “people.” Yes, I love sharing the downstairs with with Jill, Michelle, Kate and our incredible interns, and I love to visit Patty, Beth, and the boys upstairs (don’t tell them). But the fun part is that our clients are just as awesome. It’s simple – we know good people.

I’m proud to announce that Whitney Wilkerson, my favorite client and friend, was one of our good people to win Triangle Business Journal’s 40 Under 40 Award. I had the pleasure of attending the event with her on Friday night. I even got to sit next to her mother, which made the event THAT much more fun! Whitney and I sit on the Me Fine Foundation board of advisors, and she recently joined us on the planning committee for this year’s Big Bad Ball. She is all over the place. Here she is with her partner in crime at Stop Studios, Raven Manocchio, at the awards ceremony.

I’m convinced that when it comes to good people, no one knows them better than the King of All Things Good, my other favorite client, Kyle Corkum. Kyle is president of Landquest, and Landquest is made up of the most kind-hearted bunch of crazy professionals I have ever known. If you are an MMI blog follower, you’ve heard about Flying Fish Project and you’ve heard about Mother. Yesterday, Landquest closed up shop to make all of their hard work for the disadvantaged men, women, and children of Haiti come together. Every member of the Landquest staff spent the day loading 75,000 pounds of clothing, toys, formula, food, household items, and more into trucks to be shipped today. I can already imagine the look on Mother’s face when the ship arrives. I love Landquest.

I love good people. I love this job.
