Bio
Matthew Levy
Kayla Koroush worked for me at Schramsberg Vineyards from 2014 to 2017 as a Marketing Associate. During her time at Schramsberg, she had many day-to-day responsibilities, as well as being the lead for our website redesign project and in the RFP for a video project. She handled all of these roles and responsibilities as a professional, and took them all very seriously. She was able to maintain our social media presence, juggle ever-changing priorities, work well with many departments and staff members, and meet project deadlines. What impressed me most about Kayla was her drive to continuously improve, both personally and professionally. She constantly set both short-term and long-range goals for herself, and was driven to meet these goals by the deadlines she had set. This personal drive was quite impressive, and was a major factor in her success at the company. Kayla's parting was bittersweet, as we knew we were losing a talented part of our team, but also knew that her leaving was part of her greater plan. She will be a wonderful asset to any company that brings her on. Sincerely, Matthew Levy Marketing & E-commerce Manager Schramsberg & Davies Vineyards

Kayla was enthusiastic, realistic, and efficient in providing us with the support we needed. I would have no reservation working with her again.
