        I am pleased to offer this recommendation in support of Hudson Reynolds. I have known Hudson for 4 years and was his immediate supervisor in 2016 when he began working for the Abbey Catering & Event Design. He was initially hired as an event server, but it became quickly evident that Hudson had much more to offer. 

He was promoted to Event Captain and expertly ran over 20 weddings and special events during his time with the company. As an Event Captain, he collaborated with multiple stakeholders to collect requirements, developed comprehensive plans and timelines, and managed crews from 2-20 employees. In this role, he worked directly with clients to ensure all aspects of their day went according to their vision, working with people from various backgrounds, cultures, and needs/expectations. This is an extraordinarily high-demand, fast paced, high stress, and time sensitive business that takes a very well-organized and detail oriented person to be successful at. Oftentimes clients would run late, requiring flexibility and on-the-spot decisions by Hudson to keep events flowing. Other challenges such as staffing constraints requiring additional tasks and extended time than planned, were always handled to both the client and employer’s satisfaction. 

In all, Hudson is the model of professionalism, innovation, reliability, and someone I could always count on. I would highly recommend Hudson without reservation.  Patrick Brady
      
          



            
              
        
              
  

    
        As a former colleague of Hudson’s, I was impressed by his dedication to ensuring his customers’ procurement needs were always met. He consistently demonstrated practical solutions to alleviating their contracting difficulties and built relationships with new units that kept them coming back to purchase from the organization. He would be a highly valued asset to any organization and would bring a plethora of sales, vendor relations, and project management experience to any position that he pursues.
