Mark Traverso
I've been fortunate to have worked with JoAnn for five years on a variety of projects both domestically and across the world. She is at the top of the "A list" as a communications and P.R. specialist. She brings with her a breadth of knowledge that makes her suitable for any assignment, and the years of experience that allow her to achieve great success even when dealing with tight deadlines and adversity. Above that, she is a tireless worker, and a great team player. JoAnn is the consummate professional, and I would look forward to working with her any time.

JoAnn posesses great organizational and management skills. While working for me she expertly managed our local radio buys as an in-house ad agency. She was asked by the international PROMAX marketing organization to share her knowledge by conducting a seminar at one of their summits.
