“My time working for Amanda was far too brief, but I am happy to have learned from her while I could. Amanda is a fantastic leader and a good motivator who truly cares about her employees and does everything in her power to help them succeed. She was always available to answer a question--even the most highly technical questions, which she always answered with ease. Her knowledge of technology always warmed my nerdy little heart. She listened with interest to the topics and tasks that motivated me and even guided me on the ones that caused me to struggle. Amanda's leadership skills are unparalleled and should be treasured by any organization who employs her.”
