Bio
Miranda Kahn
I've worked with Maria on numerous projects and one thing is consistent through all of them: Maria does her job with skill and excellence while at the same time brings a positivity and passion to set. She is extremely professional and reliable and is always fun to work with. If Maria agrees to a task you can always trust her to complete it with timely elegance. Maria has a creative eye and a keen intelligence. I would recommend Maria to anyone (and I have many times). Anyone would be lucky to work with her.
Laura Pliskin
Maria is the epitome of dogged determination. If there's something that needs to be done, then rest assured she will have it completed quickly, correctly, and above expectation. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Maria on several projects as I knew she would not only be an asset to her team, she would make my work easier, as well.
