Bio
Kate Sample
Sunshine Foundation had the pleasure of having Janet as a volunteer in our Headquarters for several months. While she has a professional design background, Janet jumped into any task or office duty that was given to her. We especially appreciated the design experience she brought to our promotional materials and flyers. Janet added a unique touch to each design, promoting the wonderful work of Sunshine Foundation and helping to highlight each child's dream. We welcome Janet as a volunteer again in the future.

I had the pleasure of working with Janet during her tenure as Director of Creative Services. Janet is an incredible asset to a creative team. She brings a wide scope of talent and capabilities that span across creative, production and organizational needs. Janet is incredibly organized and efficient, always thoughtfully seeking solutions and working to improve processes. She has an exceptional ability to step outside of a project to see the full scope from start to finish while never losing track of the important details that will deliver success. Her ability to bridge creative talent and technical expertise to see projects from concept through completion is unparalleled. She has a strong sense of responsibility and follow through. This past year, she excelled in supporting the organization in developing the infrastructure for our new business, transitioning our model from a licensed business model to a vertical one sourcing our own product. This effort was a critical part of positioning the organization for acquisition. Throughout her years of service she has grown with the company, filling in various critical roles from design, production through management that supported the organization though years of success. Janet is a critical thinker, she is diligent and accountable and beyond all she is immensely talented. I highly recommend her.

Janet is one of the hardest working, most dedicated colleagues I have had the pleasure to work with. She had served as a mentor to me in my early design years and is a kind and incredibly thoughtful leader. Her expertise in all things digital, technical and complicated make her invaluable to any team she is on. Janet has been instrumental in establishing and implementing important procedures and her organizational skills are second only to her creativity. Janet would be an amazing asset to any team.
