Amanda Astorino

Jon came on board to help deliver on a content migration project that had a large volume of work to be delivered in a short amount of time. Jon picked up our CMS platform quickly and was able to start turning work around with top speed and efficiency. His efforts on this project directly contributed to keeping us on track. Jon was great to work with personally and his strong and efficient work ethic was a huge asset to the team and the project.

Jon expertly filled the role as a copywriter at HBK. During his time at the agency he seamlessly jumped from ATL to BLT writing tasks with ease. It's been a pleasure working with him and having him part of the team. Jon would be an asset to any team.
