She will truly speak to everyone and try to get to know them better. She gives 100% to her job and to the team activities. She goes above and beyond to make employees, especially new employees, feel welcome. She helped co-host the going-away party for Adrian Fu and made him feel special on his last day. This year has been a transitional year for me with a divorce and she goes out of her way to include me on any holiday plans or weekend events so I won’t

be alone. She is even spreading the word about Kimberley’s band at the end of December. She very much appreciates her job and is always willing to give a helping hand to people in need. My days at GOLFTEC are more fun with Maria! We are lucky to have her.”

Dave Baltzer

“Whether it’s getting the Coaches going on a March Sale kick-off call, organizing a siege of all the ramen noodles in Douglas County, or discussing the latest conspiracy theory, there’s a slim chance you won’t walk away from an encounter with Dave Baltzer without a smile on your face (and while also maybe shaking your head a little bit).
