"It is such a joy to collaborate with Kristin. She is a critical extension of our small market research team, instrumental in every aspect of the research process. She is organized, efficient, detail-oriented, responsive, and so easy to work with. She is extremely focused on the business objectives and goals. She is also well-versed in different kinds of research methodologies and approaches. When she writes reports, she uses compelling visuals to tell the story. Our team would not have been as productive or as impactful if it weren't for Kristin!" ----- Georgeanna L., AMD (Advanced Micro Devices)
"I could not be happier with the work Kristin has done since she began collaborating with us last year. She's one of those rare examples of researchers with equally strong right and left-brain skills: an incredibly organized project manager, but also an insightful, creative research analyst. She's also consistently responsive to both clients and other team members, all of which instills confidence in everyone she interacts with. I recommend her highly!" ----- Peter F., Hub Entertainment Research
"Kristin is an A+ detail-oriented researcher. She has the ability to see the big picture and take a sharp eye to the details to make sure that research is executed and analyzed with the highest quality. She is very organized with excellent communication and always a pleasure to work with." ----- Lilah K., Logica Research
"I've had the absolute pleasure to include Kristin Romak on my project teams at two companies and I can recommend her without reservation as a consummate and highly talented researcher with top-drawer skills. Her pleasant, "can-do" attitude, her attention to detail, her collaborative, team-oriented focus and her fantastic client-facing skills allowed me to hand off absolutely anything to her and to sleep well at night knowing she would successfully and skillfully navigate and creatively problem-solve any surprises and bumps in the road that are simply a part of the market research landscape. Kristin is a delight to work with, a highly-valued and well-liked team member and a considerable asset to any research team lucky enough to count her as a member." ----- Karen S., (Kantar) TNS & Synovate (Ipsos)
"Kristin has been a very helpful research partner with my work at C Space. She is adept at interpreting qualitative and quantitative data, as well as creating reports and specific data visualizations. What makes Kristin particularly effective as an independent contractor is her dependability, communication, and responsiveness. She delivers on the task on time - and has dived into new tools for us to do so - but also knows when to clarify and ask questions. This ownership but attentiveness to detail and to delivering upon the specific needs that we have has been very valuable when bringing someone onto the team to help with ad hoc work." ----- Rachel O., C Space
"Kristin was a pleasure to manage and work with. She is an excellent researcher with solid project management skills and a significant focus on the customer. Additional strengths include her communication skills and her ability to pro-actively provide insights." ----- Steve E., Hill-Rom
"Kristin Romak is an enthusiastic and skilled market researcher. She is well-versed in qualitative and quantitative methods, managing studies from design through report generation and presentation. Kristin's willingness to take on additional responsibilities and learn a new platform allowed me to successfully transition the first online panel at LexisNexis to her. She is a valuable asset to any organization and I very highly recommend her." ----- Gary B., LexisNexis
"I had the pleasure of working with Kristin while at Synovate when I was a VP and she was a Sr. Project Director, working on Tech and Telecom projects. A detail-oriented researcher and insightful report writer are the phrases that come to mind when I think about Kristin. Above all, I was impressed with Kristin’s ability to efficiently conduct and manage all phases of both quantitative and qualitative projects. Her collaborative, client-focused attitude made her a preferred contact for a major customer, which increased our sales & loyalty. Kristin would be a true asset for any positions requiring project management, analysis or moderating and comes with my complete recommendation!" ----- Holly E., Synovate (Ipsos)
"I have had the pleasure of working with Kristin for over six years. We are in the same department and she has assisted me on several long-term projects. She encompasses all of the things someone would want to see in a co-worker; she…
• Takes initiative. Doesn’t wait for tasks or projects to be handed to her; when she has capacity, she will ask others if they need help with anything.
• Is dependable. I know she will complete the assigned task on time and correctly without needing to check up on her.
• Has a positive attitude. Kristin is always upbeat and ready to tackle anything that comes her way without complaint.
• Is self-motivated. She works effectively with little direction and tries to solve problems before asking me for help.
• Is flexible. If I need her to switch gears and work on something with higher priority, she willingly drops what she’s doing and moves to the new task.
• Is an effective communicator. Her emails clearly outline what is needed and cover all points necessary to convey her message. Rarely do I need to follow up with questions.
• Is detail-oriented. I can give her a 100+ slide report to proof and she finds the smallest mistakes that most people would miss. Things such as one cell of a table having a smaller font size than the rest of the table. Or a footnote in a different shade of gray than on other slides. I never have to worry that she will miss something.
• Is hard working. Kristin is a nose-to-the-grindstone person and will work to get the job done in an efficient, timely manner." -----Kristen M., Phoenix Marketing International

"Kristin is a resourceful professional who has been a valuable asset to the Healthcare research team. In the time we have worked together, she has shown insight in providing analysis and research results, as well as a willingness to tackle new approaches. For example, when the team ran into a serious setback that impacted multiple reports (all due in the same week, naturally), Kristin worked smart by using a new reporting tool that allowed us to complete our deliverables accurately and on schedule."

"Kristin was a very valuable resource to my team while she was at Synovate. She took the time to get to know a complex, multi-modal, international tracking program and support my team whenever she had time. She checked data tables and questionnaire logic. She is a very strong critical thinker and highly capable professional. I look forward to working with her again."
