“I have had the privilege to work with Amanda in two different companies. I was able to work closely with Amanda in both companies, and I was impressed with her calm attitude, incredible work ethic and her ability to work well under pressure. While Amanda is an excellent copyeditor, she also excels at recognizing small discrepancies—even in design. Her skill set goes beyond her talents as an editor. On many occasions, I needed help meeting a deadline, and she was the first to offer her skills as a designer or anything else I needed. She was not above working into the night with me on quick turn-around projects. She leaves big shoes to fill!”
