| Date | Name | Description |
| March 13, 2019 | Mike Gallant - | MG specifically complimented me as he began working with a frustrating customer. His kind words, open encouragement, and supportive actions helped fill my batteries. Well done, Mike! |
| March 14, 2019 | Quentin - | He comes over my desk every single day since I joined the team to check how am I doing and to see if there is something he can help me with. I always feel supported by him, both professionally and personally. He inspires me not only because he is the most senior member of the team also because he is passionate about the job and he really cares about the team and the customers. |
| March 20, 2019 | Katie A Burke - | Katie A. Burke single-handedly created, organised, and ran an incredible EcoSpot event for all tech companies in Dublin. She sourced and engaged all the speakers to provide the most up-to-date and relevant information on the topic of making a Greener Office, getting people from Facebook, Google, Workday, Qualtrics and the government all in the same room. She's a true powerhouse! |
| March 21, 2019 | Andrea Roman - | Andrea is always looking out for others on the team and I am very appreciative of that. She always makes the time to see If I'm okay and will just take a moment to talk and take me out of "HubSpot" for a second, which can be great as it helps me to step back and take a break. THANK YOU, ANDREA! |
| March 26, 2019 | Cian O'Donoghue, Benoit Lochin, & Antonio Nestola - | Shout-out to the three musketeers for helping out with an unresponsive client and helping me push through a last minute off-boarding extension for the clients portal merger. It went down to the wire and I couldn't have done it without your support! |
| March 26, 2019 | Elissa Bowling - | Elissa has offered me a ride to the Portsmouth office on a couple of occasions, which helps me to feel included in our team events. She and Emily Persing even teamed up to make sure I could go to our holiday outing. As a non-driver, I super appreciate it! |
| April 1, 2019 | Rahmona Henry - | Rahmona offered to jump on a call with a client of mine who had some specific Design Manager questions. She helped answer questions I was unable to, and helped the client to acknowledge the need to get an agency involved. |
| April 19, 2019 | Alex Romo - | Alex always pushes my way of thinking, but he does it in a way that is still open, sensitive, and allows me to feel heard. He has a knack for tackling hard topics and allowing a group to have a conversation about them. He is a standout person through and through. |
| May 28, 2019 | Rahmona Henry - | I know I've told her this before, but I can't say it enough. Rahmona has been such a great friend to talk to about life in general and also about what it's like to have lived away from family and friends. I've loved our conversations in the last few months and look forward to keep in touch even across the ocean. Thank you Rahmona <3 |
| May 28, 2019 | Andrea Roman - | Andrea has been an essential friend here at HubSpot EMEA. Always up for a laugh or a serious conversation. She made me feel welcomed from the start and has become one of my closest friends. I know that even beyond HubSpot, we will continue this friendship. Thank you Andrea for all the times you were there for me <3 |
| June 19, 2019 | Age Hanrahan - | Adrian has been a massive help to me since moving to the team, always willing to give up his time to assist with technical questions and troubleshoot issues. In particular he made a great video demo-ing the Salesforce integration settings plus getting on a call with a customer to talk through it! He's a true leader not just of the Tech Consultants but of the Pro Services team in general. |
| June 19, 2019 | Rahmona Henry - | Rahmona's willingness to give up her time to help is remarkable. She goes out of her way at all times to not just answer questions but research & troubleshoot these with you! She is an 'over and above' at all times character and a pleasure to work with! |
| June 26, 2019 | Jason Rosa - | Jason is unconditionally an amazing teammate. No matter the issue or what team you are on, he is always there to lend an extra hand and solve a complex problem. Jason recently helped me with a tricky design issue and fixed it up within a few minutes. He also took the time to talk me through what he changed so that I would know what to look out for the next time. Thanks for being you, Jason! |
| June 26, 2019 | Amanda Hess - | Amanda cares about the people around her—who they are deep down, what they care about, what makes them, them. It's extremely important to have a teammate like Amanda, one who takes the time to get to know people after work, be a friend on the floor, and leads by example. I was a recent recipient of an Amanda-chat, one that started as a simple discussion that led to a three-hour conversation, and I came away feeling more connected to her as a person. I really value Amanda's outlook on life and feel fortunate to call her a dear friend on the team. |
| May 24, 2019 | Anne Huston, Rahmona Henry, Katelyn Eklund, Katie Burke, Andrea Roman, Ruth Farrell - | For organising the best surprise hen party ever and sending me off in style to get married.

| July 17, 2019 | Nathanael Yellis - | Nathanael Yellis ringing a crossword to lunch everyday has become such a wonderful tradition. Thank you. |

| September 18, 2019 | Andrew Smeallie - | I was recently on vacation and had an ongoing customer who still wanted to have a call while I was OOO. Andrew Smeallie immediately offered to pick it up. What was unknown, was that that week ended up being super busy and tough for everyone at HubSpot because of the CritSit. Andrew still did the call with my customer and an awesome one at that, despite the craziness going on. |
| July 10, 2019 | Emily Morgan - | Emily Morgan was dealing with some health issues that didn't allow her to fly. As any teammates would do, we we able to cover for her, and yet, she still made sure to greet us back in the office with a thank you note and a drink of our choice. |

| February 3, 2021 | Alex Romo - | Alex has been an incredible mentor to me over the past few months in helping me grow as an Inbound Consultant. He's been a constant source of support and encouragement – not just within this role but in my personal life as well. Things have been tough lately, and Alex is always willing to take time out of his day (or during our 1:1s) to listen. He shows acceptance, empathy, understanding, compassion and kindness no matter the topic, and it means the world to me. |

He coaches me through tough customer situations and provides me with the resources I need to be successful in this role, and he's done it all with kindness, empathy and compassion. I look forward to our conversations because I know I'll leave feeling so excited and motivated. He genuinely cares about me (both as an IC and a human), and I feel so incredibly lucky that I've had the opportunity to work with Moe. Thanks for being part of my support system and someone I know I can go to for help! |
| March 4, 2021 | Andrew Smealie - | A huge thank you to Andrew for taking time out of your day to help me through a customer situation that had me feeling stuck. And thanks for reminding me that we all experience situations like this but that I'm doing all the right things. It helped build my confidence in a situation where I felt like I was making mistakes. I appreciate your constant support and willingness to help out!!! |
| March 4, 2021 | Bradlee McKibben - | Bradlee, I can't say thank you enough for your support, encouragement and for reaching out to check-in with me during a time when I really need it. This role can be lonely and isolating, but you're quick to remind me that I'm not alone (and give great advice in the process). You're a true example of what it looks like to have HEART. I'm so incredibly thankful to work alongside you and for the friendship we've built. |
| March 4, 2021 | Denise Thijzen - | Any time I feel like I'm failing or making mistakes, Denise is quick to remind me that I'm doing so much better than I believe and that making mistakes is how we learn in this role.

I can't begin to express how much it means to me. |
| March 31, 2021 | Katie Burke - | Thank you for always willing to be a resource, friend, and just a positive force on the team. :) |
| April 6, 2021 | Larry Womack - | After a meeting where I shared that I was struggling with my mental health, Larry took the time to understand how I've been feeling by asking questions and offering suggestions on how I can make my days feel less overwhelming – like taking micromoments throughout the day where I actually close my laptop, taking random days off, and ending work early if I work late another day. Although it all probably seems obvious to others, it's really tough for me, so I appreciated when Larry said he was going to hold me accountable to taking those micromoments – and he did :) Having that accountability forced me to take those breaks, and it's made a huge difference on my overall mental health! Larry also reached out on Slack when he saw I was out sick, and it meant so much that he checked in to see how I was feeling. Larry: You have such a huge heart, are so much fun to talk to, and have already made an impact in my life. Thank you for being an example of what it means to have HEART and for caring so much about me and everyone on this team! |
| May 19, 2021 | Jim - | Thank you for always popping fun questions into slack! It's nice to take a quick mental break and think about something other than work for a bit while learning a bit more about my peers. |
| June 9, 2021 | Christina Bockisch - | Thank you Christina for always being such an active member of not only the Pro Services community but HubSpot's community as a whole. Your reminders and updates really help keep not just work top of mind. |
