Dear Mr. Soroka,
I have known Jaclyn Castillo for the past year, during which she has been a principal lead in our
Clinical Research Operations and Regulatory Affairs at the Center for Clinical and Cosmetic
Research, where I serve as the Director.
I am writing to recommend that you consider Jaclyn Castillo for the City of Aventura
Community Service Advisory Board. In my years of experience, some individuals stand out for
their great qualities and Jaclyn Castillo is one of those people. She has an incredible work ethic,
a positive attitude and is very meticulous. She is an optimistic, motivated person that we are
lucky to have on staff.
During her time here, she has played an important role in clinical research operations and
regulatory affairs. Her duties involve review of clinical trial agreements and amendments, the
development of study budgets, management of regulatory submissions to local and central
committees, and oversight of internal/external advertising and subject recruitment. She also
provides support for Investigator Initiated Trials with essential documents, templates, and final
study reports. Jaclyn excels at finding the problem, developing a solution and putting it into
action.
In summation, I would heartily recommend that you appoint Jaclyn Castillo to the City of
Aventura Community Service Advisory Board. I am sure that she would not let you down and
would be as great an asset to your board as she is to my team.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if I can be of further assistance.
Sincere
11P,

Mr. Soroka:
My name is Erin Flaherty Barfield and I have known Jaclyn Castillo since 2013. She has run for
Morgan Memorial Goodwill Industries' " Running for Great Kids" Boston Marathon team for
three consecutive years. In my role as Events Manager for Goodwill, I oversee the runners and
their fundraising.
It is my pleasure to recommend Jaclyn for your Community Services Advisory Board. Jaclyn has
always amazed me with her commitment to our community. She has raised nearly $ 13,000 for
Goodwill' s Youth Initiative through her participation in the Boston Marathon. Throughout the
time I've know her, she has shown me time and again that she is a positive, driven fundraiser
with amazing potential.
Jaclyn has exceeded the minimum fundraising requirement in two of the years that she has been
a member of our team. Her commitment to help raise funds to support the program, which
provides young people from Boston' s most underserved neighborhoods with the opportunity to
reach their full potential, is admirable. Though she currently resides in Aventura, Jaclyn is
originally from the Boston area and is dedicated to supporting her former community. I know
that she would apply this same commitment to her current home community.
Due to Jaclyn' s great attitude, dedication and excellent potential, I recommend that you accept
Jaclyn for the Community Service Advisory Board position.
Please feel free to contact me for any further information. I can be reached at 617- 541- 1255 or at
