To whom it may concern,
This letter serves to share my experience of
working with Carlton Rounds at the Cascade AIDS Project (CAP) over the past two years. During
that time I have worked as a supervisor to Mr.Rounds in his position as a CareLink Service
Navigator. Carlton has impressed me since the first day that I met him in his job interview, and
he has continued to impress and inspire me for as long as I've known him. Carlton's performance
in his role as a service navigator, and his contributions to our work environment at CAP,
have been paramount to the impact and success we've had in supporting the efforts of our
clients to reach their healthcare and other life goals.
Sharing his combined personal and
professional experiences, Carlton has been an exceptional advocate and case manager for his clients.
Carlton sees the bigger picture in terms of how a multitude of factors impact a client's
ability to improve engagement with medical care. He examines all aspects of a client's life and
interests to help empower them to make positive and healthy decisions in their lives. He relates
well and builds rapport with our diverse range of clients, and he encourages them to identify
and utilize their strengths to achieve their goals.Through empathy, compassion, honesty and
trust, Carlton connects with his clients no matter what their background or circumstance may be.They
find common ground and work together to help the clients improve their own lives.
Carlton has been a tremendous asset in terms
of cultivating relationships with community
partners that support our work and the needs
of our clients. He cooperates effectively with
other service providers and has initiated new
contacts with agencies and resources that help us serve our mission. Carlton is quick to lend
support to colleagues inside and outside of CAP,whether it be related to a specific client
concern, or any other issue. This is only one example of the many ways that Carlton devotes his
time and energy to helping others, both here locally and in other parts of the world as well.
Carlton is exceptionally intelligent,
compassionate, focused and driven. He is a thoughtful
observer and communicator, a strategic
forward-thinker and a fair and caring leader. Carlton is an unwavering and relentless advocate for our
clients and community, and he does everything in his power to strengthen the integrity of and
dedication to our agency's mission.
I am very fortunate to have had the
opportunity to know and work with Carlton Rounds. I have learned so much from him both personally and
professionally, and I am grateful for the positive impact that he's had on me and on so many
others. Carlton has performed incredibly well throughout the time we've worked together and
I am completely confident that he will continue to bring the same skill and energy to all of his
future endeavors. Please feel free to contact me if I can be of service in any way.
Sincerely,
Adam Kutrumbos
