Bio
Matthew Cabral
Lorna’s strongest asset is her dependability! Whether it be an advertisement requiring immediate attention, or a long term project that has fallen off the team to-do-list, I know I can rely on Lorna to stay on track and accomplish our goals in a timely and efficient manner. As our work environment is demanding with a heavy focus on multitasking, Lorna will succeed and continue to seek the best possible solution to her tasks. Lorna displays an innate ability to manage her time. She continues to impress me with her ability to properly assess the time it takes to complete a project, and how she continues to schedule tasks at work. Being in a high stress environment could impact morale negatively; I know I can count on Lorna to begin each day refreshed, positive, encouraging, and ready to face any challenges that come her way. She is a natural leader and continues to create a positive and inclusive work environment. Lorna deserves all of the praise that she receives and will continue to receive for being such an incredible asset and driving force to any team. Thank you for your hard work!

As the Career Development Specialist at Herzing College, I know that Lorna will have a very bright and successful graphic design career ahead of her because of her positive attitude, her willingness to succeed, and how she responds, and engages with people. I recommend Lorna to any employer because of her strong work ethic. As a matter of fact, after sending her to a very in-demand internship last month, the employer graciously asked to keep her on to complete extra work, and all because of her initiative to succeed - a trait I feel will allow Lorna to get ahead in her industry. Any future employer will benefit from this most in demand skill. I wish her the very best!
