Bio
Megan Fixter ☁️
Alanna has remarkable attention to detail. She is particularly great at keeping the primary goal of a project top of mind, focusing in on the most pertinent information, and keeping her team focused. She is very organized and can work through projects efficiently all while maintaining a great attitude. She led an assignment we worked on together at Olive Media which reduced a team's reporting process from 30+ hours a week down to approximately 10 hours. She is a great problem solver, very proficient in excel, and a true team player!
