“I had the pleasure of working with Kathryn when she mentored me and a group of nurses during our first publication. She was instrumental in our success of publishing a journal for the first time. She worked with us from the beginning through finding journals to contact, manuscript formatting, editing our writing and overall project management. She led our group till the end even when she had left our institution. She was patient, kind and took her time to teach each one of us on how to navigate publication writing.” - Jaclyn A. (Oncology nurse, EBP/quality improvement project)
“I’ll never forget my first research article that was published with my name as first author in a high impact academic journal! Had it not been for Kathryn who mentored and guided me through the entire research process, including background literature searches, data analysis, and editing of the final manuscript, it would have taken twice as long to submit the paper and succeed at successful acceptance. Thanks to Kathryn I gained invaluable research skills which I went on to apply in completing additional high quality projects. I truly enjoyed working with her and appreciated all that she taught me.” - Dr. Dulce B. (Physician)
“I worked with Kathryn Ciccolini very closely while she was the Clinical Program Manager of the Bone Marrow Transplant and Cellular Therapy Program. She was essential to the program’s success and has developed a tremendous amount of structure to the program allowing for a more streamlined and transparent work environment. Kathryn is very optimistic, goal oriented, always going above and beyond, her energy is radiant and she is positive even when things do not go as planned and has a contagious uplifting spirit! Aside from her work ethic, Kathryn motivated me, gave me guidance and realistic feedback that led to my decision to apply for my Masters in Healthcare Administration, and I could not have been more grateful for her words and support. Having doubts of even being accepted into this program and being shy a few months from graduation, I am grateful for Kathryn’s foresight in knowing everything would work out for me. Not only was Kathryn a colleague, but we became close friends over the years of working together. I will always appreciate her for everything she has done to help me be where I am today.” – Isabel G. (Masters of Health Care Administration student)
“Kathryn went above and beyond what I needed, helping to ensure I was content with my final product. Everything was explained thoroughly and options were given that would best fit my needs on my various consults. She treated me with the utmost professionalism and was prompt in communication.” Joanne L. (BSN Nursing student)
“I was very lucky to have the opportunity to work with Kathryn regarding my DNP scholarly project. She was vital in helping me craft my literature search and organize my literature review matrix. I also found her ideas around project development invaluable as she helped narrow the scope of my project when I was trying to boil the ocean. I learned so much from her concerning the process of evidence based practice and scholarly writing. I would highly recommend her as she is extremely professional, organized and gave me the encouragement and guidance I needed to kickstart my DNP proposal writing.” - Shana GC. (DNP student)
