I met Amy this fall when I was her instructor for SFU's email and mobile marketing class. Amy was a huge asset to the class; her eagerness to learn new concepts and participate throughout class activities and discussions showed she had what it takes to succeed in the digital marketing field. Amy emerged as a natural leader and was a key player in group projects including, creating a spec strategy for an Email and Mobile Marketing Campaign for a local business in Vancouver. Hire her! She will work hard and do great work for your company or organization.
