"Chelse is a true professional and extremely dependable. She is in tune with the latest technologies and has won many national and international awards in the fields of production and social media.  Her blog, “The Business Bitch”, which I so thoroughly enjoy, was listed as the top 50 blogs for empowering women http://www.onlinecollegedegrees.net/best-women-business-blogs.  In all the years I have known her, I have enjoyed her enthusiasm and dedication to quality work and community service." 

- Dr. S.J. Sethi Assistant Director Office of Institutional Research and Effectiveness The University of Texas-Pan American  


"Chelse has an aptitude to seek creative solutions and implement them. In three years, she has brought an additional $512,000 dollars of resources in the form of capital improvement, funding, and personnel to her department. She is an independent, self-motivated individual with fresh ideas. She multi-tasks multiple objectives, writes compelling grants and enthusiastically communicates her goals to stakeholders. As a result, she produces win-win situations based upon persuasive negotiation. 

Examples of Chelse's work ethic can be found in her solutions. She does whatever is necessary to implement her endeavors by collecting data, engaging the stakeholders, and building teams. She is able to grasp the larger picture and integrate all areas related to the functionality and success of a project. This unique ability, to orchestrate new initiatives, is how she has built two new production facilities, resuscitated a dormant closed-circuit television system, and built a partnership with KMBH TV60. In addition, Chelse has consistently demonstrated commitment to create diversity in programming that meets the needs of our bi-cultural community. Due to all of these achievements, I awarded Chelse with the 2007 Meritorious Service Award for the Division of External Affairs for The University of Texas-Pan American."

"Chelse is professional. She goes beyond to create an excellent product, and she turns a negative situation in to a positive one. She is extremely creative, very determined and driven, will come up with a solution when faced with a lack of resources. She makes things happen. She produces productions that have received national and international recognition."
