I have worked with Cheryl for the past 5 years with the Radio Disney program, and I must say it was an absolute pleasure. During this time we worked together to develop and implement traffic driving, family friendly events to numerous shopping malls in the Philadelphia and surrounding markets. Working with Cheryl made my job a little easier. She always brought new and inventive ideas to me. She knew my market and my demographic and always presented accordingly. She handled every event with excitement and with precision. I never had to worry about a single detail being missed. She is smart, energetic, and creative and passionate about what she does. She has a drive that over the years has not only made me value our working relationship but our friendship.

She has the keen ability to understand her clients needs rapidly and provide solutions almost immediately making working with Cheryl not only extremely efficient but also energetic and invigorating. Having Cheryl on my team simply means having the very best.
