Bio
Doug Swanson, Ed.D APR
I worked with Amber while I taught at Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo. Amber demonstrated excellent initiative and a great desire to learn. In each class she took from me, I was pleased to see strong growth in her knowledge and capabilities. Amber demonstrated very good skills in writing, research, and creative thinking ability. She dealt professionally with her client in the campaigns class. I know that Amber was supporting herself as she worked toward her degree, and that self-sufficiency carried a lot of weight with me. I know from personal experience what it's like to work your way through school, and Amber was handling the many challenges well. I think she has a great career ahead of her, and I am happy to offer my endorsement. DS
