Bio
David Hankins
Christine came into a situation that had turned chaotic and was able to bring order to it very quickly. I found Christine to be smart, conscientious and a very quick learner, as well as someone who could think two steps ahead. I believe Christine would be a benefit to any organization she belonged to and I would definitely want to work with her again.

Christine Bennett was initially introduced to me as a service provider for one of my media vendors, Cannella Response Television. I had the unique pleasure of working with her on both sides of the fence, as a client whose campaigns she worked on as well as her supervisor, working on my projects. The quality of her work and her very gracious disposition made her a very appealing candidate, that, when a position opened at my company, I'd discussed the possibilities of leaving her company and having her join my team, which eventually came to be. She was one of the best hires during my tenure at Beachbody in the Media Department, and although eventually it was sad to see her leave when she left to pursue her Master's Degree at UCLA, I also know it was a step in the right direction for her, since she's always approached everything she's done with respect, ambition and passion. So, I knew she's be successful outside of my world of direct response media, and with both pride and admiration both applauded and supported her decision. As I always look for with anyone I hire, she's always shown keen abilities to learn new proceedures and processes fast; work well with others; work independently; multi-task; and meet or beat goals and expectations in a timely manner. It is with all of the above that I offer my endorsement of Christine Bennett, and offer anyone who would like to discuss her professional abilities an opportunity to speak directly with me.
