Vanessa Comar was a delight to work with during the production of my television show Rad Girls. She helped move us to another level with styling, product placement and brand management. She is a true visionary and self starter who has the capability or seeing things through to completion. I would highly recommend her services!

Vanessa is a tremendous creative talent. Having worked with her professionally over the course of the last nearly ten years on various beauty, entertainment fashion & lifestyle shoots, high-profile events, and on-air/camera activations as well as editorial placements I have gotten to know Vanessa on both a professional and personal level. Vanessa has become an invaluable resource in my creative and professional endeavors. She is at the top of my shortlist when a professional creative visionary is necessary. I never hesitate to recommend her to any colleagues and have employed her services in my own endeavors as well as those I managed while at NBC. She is mutli-talented, knowledgable and resourceful. Whether it is providing art direction or styling input behind-the-scenes or charismatically providing insightful and on-trend advice or direction on-camera. Vanessa's uncanny ability to provide exactly what each client needs time after time makes her a leader in her field. She is alway composed under pressure. Vanessa's positive energy, adaptability can do attitude and ability to get the job done make her a perfect addition to any team and I look forward to continuing to call upon her services for years to come.

I have had the pleasure of working with Vanessa for more than a decade when she was with Stila. She truly was very committed to her role and contributed to the success of the brand in both Southern and Northern California. I highly recommend Vanessa as she is extremely reliable and passionate in whatever she does and has much to contribute with all her talents.
