“Linda is a phenomenal leader and professional in healthcare and beyond. Her experience understanding the fundamentals of hygiene, design, and avoiding risk has been paramount for me to learn from her. She is an incredible resource and advocates for all to see the importance of patient care, and that starts with the type of materials in a hospital space. I am grateful for the time and experience she extended to my company and me while I had the chance to learn from her. ”
