Tiffany Derville Gallicano

Janet is highly engaged in public relations. She was selected by the public relations faculty from a group of applicants to represent the University of Oregon with a team of other top students for the PRSSA Bateman Competition. She also plays a leadership role in our student-run public relations agency. She is a strategic thinker who is easy to work with. She has a great attitude and strong interpersonal skills. She always met deadlines in my class and has the self-efficacy to confront challenges with confidence.

I met Janet in a Public Relations Research class. We worked in a group together and quickly became friends. She's easy to work with and always willing to work hard. She is a great addition to any team, and I'm so proud of everything she has accomplished so far. I know that she's going to go far in her career and would recommend her without reservation.
