Andréa G. Markum, MBA/MHSA, LPC.

I have had the chance to work with Miya through our mutual service on the SHRM student chapter # 5604 as 2008-2009 Executive Board Members. During our time in service together, I have found Miya to be an extremely conscientious individual with an engaging personality. Miya is a strategic thinker, an excellent communicator which allowed her to excel in her role as Director of communications. Her high energy and positive attitude would make her a valued asset to any team to which she belongs. I count it as a privilege and a pleasure to have known Miya over the years.

It's a joy to know Miya both professionally and as a friend! Teresa Turner HR Analyst Southeastern Virginia Training Center
