She is self-driven – one of those rare professionals who pushes herself (and the teams she works with) past what is expected on every project she's given. Emily is a creative thinker, a skilled craftsman and an effective leader. When she encounters a problem that requires new skills, she will master them quickly. Sometimes overnight. She's exactly the kind of person I would be recruiting if I still ran my advertising firm. Talk to her and you'll see what I mean.

Emily possesses one of the most important attributes organizations are looking for these days: emotional maturity. She's calm, reasoned, and in control during challenging work situations -- while at the same time, blessed with a strong work ethic. I witness these behaviors everyday... in an environment where these traits are essential to work success.

Emily is dedicated, tenacious, focused, and undaunted by challenging situations. Her creativity, intelligence, and attention to detail are unmatched... She should never, ever be underestimated. I consider her an asset of the highest order.

Emily has the right attitude and mindset to learn and continue to grow creatively at a high level. She has an incredible work ethic, thick skin, and challenges herself to do the best work possible.

I recommend her not only for her professional qualifications, but for her sincere passion for creative problem solving and continuous improvement, her grit and tenacity, and her curiosity and kindness.

She articulates and defends her ideas with conviction, but also values and listens with an open mind to the contributions of her colleagues. She is tuned into and constantly exploring new cultures and technologies, with a real love for provocative ideas and possibilities. Her creativity is guided by a combination of invention and pragmatism.
