  I worked with Felice, recently, on a highly confidential and sensitive contract. I selected her specifically for her knowledge of contract, employment and IP law. Her thoughtfulness in terms of understanding the intent and spirit of the contract were essential, mitigating the typical contention that arises between parties once the legal aspect is interjected. Felice's vast background in the legal field, her ability to understand and pursue intended outcomes, and her personal spirit and vigor are an asset to any negotiation and/or business. The entertainment arena, as in most venues, tends to stick to what they know. As a former outsider myself, I know that adding new perspective is indispensable as is Felice's fundamental skill set.

  I worked with Felice during my time with Amphenol when I worked as Manager of Financial Reporting. My job required extensive interaction with the legal department. During my time with the company, my perception of Felice is that she holds herself and others to very high standards. Within the Amphenol legal department, she routinely demonstrated herself to be an instrumental member of the team offering up clear, concise legal advice "on demand". This is noteworthy because our business is very fast paced and answers are generally needed quickly. For this reason, she was my first call when I was confronted with a legal issue that needed immediate attention because her legal knowledge runs deep. I personally stand behind her expertise and highly recommend her for a senior-level position in a corporate legal department. Also, besides her legal knowledge, her personality is easy going and friendly.

  I have had the privilege of meeting Felice Gray-Kemp starting in 2011 during the recruiting process which ultimately led to her joining Chemtura Corporation. Since joining Chemtura, we have partnered during the hiring process for several openings within the organization, including three positions for which she was the key decision maker. I have a tremendous amount of respect for her insight and input, as well as her decision making abilities. She has added a wealth of experience and energy not only to our legal department, but across the entire organization from the Executive Team down. I enjoy working with her as both a peer and mentor, and she is always very responsive to any of my questions or needs. I look forward to learning from her as we continue to partner together.
