Quenta Vettel, APR

I worked with Alex at Barnard College and she's among the smartest, most accomplished young women I've worked with. She did a great job in our Communications department, promoting events and developing marketing plans for College initiatives. I'd hire her again in a heartbeat!

Alex is a great leader with an open mind. She always comes to the table prepared with bright ideas, conversation starters and ways to improve any project.
