Bio
Janet Glazier
I have had the pleasure of working with Mindy for 16 years. Mindy is one of the most dedicated and hard-working individuals I know. Mindy will arrive early and stay late to finish projects. She works extremely well under pressure and tight deadlines. Mindy's customer services skills are excellent. She is very approachable and has a smile on her face. She will do all she can to satisfy the client. Any company would be lucky to have her as an employee.

Mindy and I worked closely together when I was the Director of Programming at Velocity. Managing and processing over 200 + hours of content a year for the network, Mindy is friendly, organized, a problem solver - and always willing to go the extra mile to get things done - or find ways to make processes better.
