Recommendation I have known Nagaba Linda Maxine since 2019 when I first worked with her at The Uhuru Institute for Social Development (TIU). She is a hardworking, self-motivated, delivers results with minimal supervision, a good mobilizer and team builder. Linda Maxine is competent, experienced and skills in; creation of media content particularly social media content, corporate communication, news writing, photography, videography, media monitoring, branding and brand promotion and awareness among others. She is also computer proficient especially in Microsoft office and others. I therefore have no hesitation in recommending her for any opportunity. Edward Ssekika Communication Specialist & Advocate

For the few years I have known Maxine, I must say she is very skilled and very knowledgeable not only about what she has studied but about everything happening in and out of her space. I keep saying she has acquired more knowledge and skills in a short period of time which ideally would take a longer time to acquire. Maxine is very passionate about PR and the digital space. She is also a good influencer especially with food and lifestyle. She is a kind and very patient individual. I highly recommend her for every great opportunity out there.
