Hollie Zeier, Accounts Control Supervisor
“Compassion and understanding. I find these to be two extremely valuable attributes in a person, especially a supervisor. If you feel your supervisor cares about you as a person, and are not just another cog in the machine, it makes you work harder for that person. I cannot thank her enough for being supportive, compassionate, and understanding. Hollie exhibits these traits with members as well, exhausting all options to work with and protect our members.”
