“René is my main 'go-to' technical friend. She's helped me work through several issues in setting up my professional academic website. More than impressed with her understanding of technical details and her willingness to roll up her sleeves and dive deeper into issues, I'm impressed with her character. Her work ethic is excellent, she's passionate about what she involves herself with (life's too short to put time into what you don't care about), and she's has integrity to the nth degree. I could not recommend her more strongly.”

“René currently manages to fulfill a number of functions within our IT operation. Not only does René program, she also handles helpdesk calls, manages our telephone system configuration, and assists with network management of our LAN. Additionally, René’s desire to stay at the top of her game is clear as she consistently offers a fresh perspective and creative approach to projects. She approaches her projects by calculating risks and making solid determinations, and adds valuable input when working with a team. I have worked with René for three years. The thing that impresses me the most about her is the “can do” attitude, and her eagerness to learn new and more challenging skills. She is also constantly developing a resourceful network of colleagues that respect and admire her…. She manages to turn her lack of long term experience into positive learning opportunities and never makes the same mistake twice. She documents her projects meticulously to insure others can provide the required service(s) should that become necessary. René never gives up and appreciates positive criticism that can only make her grow in the long run.”

“René Britton worked under my supervision as a Senior Website Designer until her departure from EFCO in November 2003. Unfortunately, due to economic conditions – the company downsized several departments, and her position was eliminated. Her responsibilities included designing web graphics, developing HTML pages, maintaining updates on our website and internal portal, and monitoring helpdesk and webmaster inquiries. During the course of her employment, René proved to be an excellent employee, hard worker, and a talented designer. I was quite impressed by René’s ability to complete all work assigned to her on time, if not before it was due. When assigned to help with application testing, she was always thorough and willing to provide suggestions for improvement. Overall, René is a very conscientious and dedicated employee. I certainly believe she has what it takes to be an excellent team member in any environment in which she chooses to participate. I strongly recommend René for any position requiring graphics and web development skills, teamwork, and a positive attitude.”
- Patty Ward
Director of Application Development at EFCO Corporation
“I highly recommend Ms. René Britton for any job for which she is applying if the job requires that the employee displays initiative, has outstanding organizational skills, and is able to handle multiple projects and meet deadlines. During her employment with the Hickam Services Squadron Marketing and Publicity Office, she demonstrated these skills and traits many times. Ms. Britton worked on both large and small projects, from designing, implementing and maintaining our web page, creating logos, designing fliers, booklets and brochures, gathering information and coordinating the publication of our quarterly class guide, troubleshooting computer problems, updating information on the commander’s access channel and even painting coconuts! (Be sure to ask her about that one.) No task was too big or too small for her. She uses common sense, is very detail-oriented, and whatever job was assigned to her, she accomplished it with accuracy efficiency. Ms. Britton was also responsible for training her replacement when she was promoted from Graphic Designer to Webmaster, and then again when leaving her position as Webmaster because of her move back to the Mainland. She kept the position continuity folders up-to-date and I always felt confident that her replacement would be properly trained and the training would be thorough. Ms Britton’s professional appearance and positive attitude were great assets to the Hickam Services Squadron.”
