When I worked at the Associated Press in the Corporate Finance area as an Analyst in the Accounts Payable Dept., I audited Concur Travel and Entertainment reports and April was at the time the Administrative Assistant that I dealt with quite often for the bureau that she represented. When I communicated my findings to April to either correct on her own or to communicate to the bureau staff she did so with ease and I knew that she would get the job done.

I was privileged to work with April for several years, and I honestly could not have asked for a better executive assistant. She's extremely detail-oriented, and helped manage numerous projects to completion - all the while keeping a great attitude and smile on her face. She is always eager to take on new assignments and new challenges. She stays on budget and she is great about coming up with innovative ways to help boost employee morale. I give April my highest recommendation.
