Amy worked with my organization to support our website development, and I was floored by her performance. Within just a few weeks, she was able to understand our organization’s mission and goals, streamline our communications to simplify and amplify our messaging, and design and develop all aspects of our website. I was expecting to have to hire a big team to deal with the website, but was surprised when she was able to take on and project manage all the moving pieces- from all the technical pieces associated with learning a new platform, to the user-friendly design, to super-engaging content copywriting, to eye-catching images, to the marketing ... If you are looking for a thought-partner, copywriter, project manager, brand advisor, website designer/developer, technical support provider, or instigator of new ideas to support your organizational mission, I strongly recommend bringing Amy onto your project before someone else snatches her up. - D.B.
Amy worked as a communications consultant with our team for over 3 years. During that time, she established excellent working relationships across the organization, helped us innovate our communications processes, designed and developed a number of internal employee facing campaigns, supported with project management on a number of our initiatives, and helped boost our team’s internal recognition. Amy has a unique eye for detail and is a master at proof reading. She also has a keen design eye, which is a unique combination of skills to find in one person – both the technical and creative in one package. It was truly my pleasure to work with Amy. She is dependable, a strategic thinker, receptive to feedback, and sets exceptionally high standards for her work. - J.T.
