I had the pleasure of working with Kerilyn for 2yrs. I hired her to interview guests for LIVE On-Air broadcast via Chicago, IL cable television on behalf of The Africa International House. Kerilyn was always professional, prompt, knowledgeable and prepared; she always took the time to research topics and guests prior to going live - be it behind the news desk or on the red carpet. Kerilyn's vibrant personality made it very easy to work with her. She was a great asset to the Africa International House and The African LIFE.
