Tim Bradshaw, President, Owner AllTrips.
Having worked with Carli for over 10 years, I can easily say she is one of my favorite people, period. I’m sure others agree. Carli enjoys organizing/tying up loose ends and is always eager to step up to a task, while continually improving her skill set. She works well both independently and in a group setting. Most importantly, she is deeply caring, and brings a smile and sense of fun to nearly everything she does - whether at a job, doing charity work, or in her personal life. Kudos to Carli for all she does!

Spread the Love Commission has been lucky enough to have had Carli Lyon as a supporter, advisor, and contractor since its inception. One of our organization’s core values is quality over quantity and Carli is like 3 highly skilled people wrapped into one. The question has never been what Carli can do it’s what she can’t do. I personally have not discovered anything she can’t do yet. Her experience in the nonprofit world and her command of all things technical mixed with her efficiency, people skills, and ability to learn and adapt makes her a priceless commodity. All of this comes with a compassionate heart and an incredible work ethic. I truly could not recommend her more highly.
Wren Fialka, Founder Spread the Love Commission
I had the pleasure of working with Carli for the duration of her time at AllTrips. We were a small and passionate team that required all of us to wear many hats. Yet, it was Carli who always brought the most enthusiasm and drive each and every day. She wore every hat given to her and was always eager to put on another if there was an opportunity to explore or value to be delivered. She frequently dove out of her comfort zone to tackle unfamiliar roles and responsibilities. The forever learner with the ability to adapt and thrive in any situation. While many of us get stuck in the rut of the familiar, Carli pushes herself and her team to the next level! Thank you for everything Carli
BJ Hansen Owner at Teton Homestead Property Management Group
I worked with Carli for 10 years at a small digital marketing company specializing in lodging and activities providers in resort areas throughout the US. While working together, Carli adapted genially in a variety roles and responsibilities, and always went above and beyond in making sure she was doing them well. Carli is an extraordinarily likable person who is a conscientious employee and colleague; I feel lucky to have worked with her.
Some specific areas/roles in which I think Carli especially shined was in processes and organization. When our company used Lean Startup methodology to evolve, she understood clearly what needed to be done and set the company up to do this effectively, which was no small feat. She set us up for success at every turn. Carli also knows how to have fun and make work-related events fun. Ultimately, she is a smart and talented team player who is a pleasure to work with.
Alyson Smith Klaczkiewicz - Advertising and Marketing Consultant
I worked with Carli for almost 8 years at AllTrips and often reminisce about the enthusiasm and energy she brought to the company, as well as the friendship that grew from working together. Carli is one of the most giving and caring people I know and this shines both on a personal level and in the work environment. While our roles at AllTrips were unique, we often collaborated on new and exciting endeavors. She brought a level of energy that was unmatched and was always eager to learn and expand her skills, as well as help move projects forward in any way that she could. Her skillset is well rounded, but it's her passion that I feel makes her successful, not to mention delightful to have on any team.

Over the years Carli and I have worked together on several projects and she is one of the best people to have as a team member. She is intelligent, organized and comes up with creative solutions to difficult problems.
Carli’s level of organization guarantees that everyone is on the same page and focused on the main goal. Our collaborations have always been smooth and successful, thanks in large part to Carli’s hard work and positive attitude!
She is truly capable of tackling any project!
Katherine Tomkinson - Creative Director at PM Creative
In the many years I worked with Carli at AllTrips, she always exhibited the highest caliber of organizational skills and positive attitude within our sales and marketing team. Driven by self-imposed and company-wide deadlines to reach goals throughout her tenure, she was productive, courteous and fun to work with. If our staff got off-topic, she would keep us on-task and moving ahead in our projects. Over and above these great traits, she is effervescent and full of energy, always in a good mood, and could raise the levity in a meeting or gathering for everyone in attendance. This combination of attributes should make her a very valuable team member for whoever seeks a person of her talents.
Mike Banville - Digital Advisor - AllCabins at AllTrips.
Carli has a diverse set of skills that make her an invaluable - as both a team member and someone who can work independently to get things done. In my 5 years working with Carli, I was often impressed with her empathy for and understanding of her coworkers’ unique challenges, and of our diverse groups of stakeholders - executive management, advertisers, and customers. When evaluating organizational opportunities and issues, she was able to bring in perspectives of each of these groups as needed.
Carli also made magic happen regularly - planning and executing productive and fun team retreats. Again, to tie back to her empathetic and detail oriented nature - she always ensured people had what they needed to be successful, and ensured that every get together organizationally was meaningful not just to the work we got done, but in ways that we as a company could contribute to the community and environment.

It is my absolute pleasure to write this letter of recommendation on behalf of Carli Lyon. I have known Carli over the course of the past 10 years, both as a friend and a colleague. Ms. Lyon is consistently one of the most dependable and hard-working people I know, both in her work and personal life. When she dedicates herself to a task, whether large or small, she will see that task to completion, with the highest standard of work applied throughout the process.
As a colleague, I got to know Ms. Lyon after she agreed to assist me in running a non-profit, aimed at benefitting athletes with traumatic brain and/or spinal cord injury. We embarked on this journey side-by-side, and have worked together in this endeavor throughout the past 8 years. I can honestly confirm that this organization would not be in its current functioning status if operating at all if it were not for Ms. Lyon. Her knowledge and understanding of necessary tasks both on the scene and behind are invaluable to any organization. She is able to manage and source answers to tasks, and provide working solutions be-fore any potential disruptions occur. Ms. Lyon has a unique ability to work with people and with numbers. She is able to remain up-to-date on relevant applications to make any task run more smoothly. She is ac-countable and efficient with her time and operates in a manner based on trust and reliability. She is open and understanding to staff, and sets a positive example in all her endeavors, in and out of the workplace.
As a friend, Ms. Lyon is straight-forward, honest, and empathetic. She is continually sought out by her peers for assistance and advice, both personally and professionally, both of which she is proficient at providing. She is able to evoke passion toward projects that are not her own, and at the same time, is able to channel a proficient course of action in making such tasks successful.
All of the outstanding qualities, which embody Ms. Lyon, will no doubt serve her well in any endeavor she chooses to embark upon. Over the past decade, I have yet to see a task she has not been able to accomplish with true merit and grace, and I look forward to seeing what is in store for her next.
