Excerpt: 

“I also had the rare glimpse of her (Amanda’s) managerial skills and people skills. I have served as the advisor to WFFC, the college radio station, for many years. I have to say that she brought a confidence and assurance to her position as day to day operation manager of the station. In the twenty-seven years that I have been involved with the station, I can honestly say that I rank her among the best and most dedicated people who held the post of station manager.”

“During the (date redacted) semester, Amanda was my student in the two capstone courses of Utica College’s M.B.A. program in Economic Crime & Fraud Management: Seminar in Fraud Management and Strategic Management & Leadership. She did very well, earning A’s in both courses.”

Jim Bier, former Ferrum College Professor

“I know Amanda as a very bright, engaging, responsible and thorough person with a large tool-kit of skills.”

Peg Ackley, former Technology Coordinator at Cave Spring High School, Roanoke, VA; currently Chief Administrator at EQ Leader, Inc.

“Amanda was originally hired as the Distance Learning Assistant at Cave Spring. I trained her in this position and found her a quick study. She had the respect and cooperation of the students she supervised. When her technical abilities became apparent she was quickly pressed into service as the Computer Coordinator and Webmaster, and helped with the Laptop Initiative as well.

She was thorough and responsible in carrying out any duty to which she was assigned. I found her very creative in her approach to the webpage, which she kept up to date on a daily and sometimes hourly basis. Amanda was a huge asset to the technology program at Cave Spring High School.

She got along with everyone and was the go-to person for any challenging technology problem. She was quick, thorough, kind, pleasant, and cheerful. She was an excellent researcher and never gave up on a problem until she solved it.

After I left Cave Spring to take my current position with EQ Leader, I was fortunate to be able to convince Amanda to join me. She is knowledgeable in such a variety of subjects, and she can do so much, so quickly. I knew that if I had to hire someone else, it would mean hiring not just one person, but several.”
