Bio
Les Kodlick
Smart, leading edge, problem-solving public relations professional with particular expertise in social media. We worked together early in her career when Maja developed and launched SM programs and then trained the staff for two different Air Force major commands. She coached, counseled and cajoled intermediate- and ‘CEO’- level leaders getting them comfortable with the technology and ever-changing industry trends. Formally trained and schooled in public relations, her experience and expertise has grown exponentially since then. Maja remains my ‘go to’ expert on technical issues, branding, and occasional ‘sounding board.’ Impressive!
Maureen Fernstrum
Maja is an extremely determined individual. She jumped right in on every project she was on at C-K and was always willing to help with additional work even if she wasn't assigned to the client. She is the epitome of a team player. During her time at C-K, she made a serious effort to get to know everyone within the agency. I would welcome the opportunity to work with Maja again in the future!
