Several years after having worked with Samantha, I am still trying to find a way to work with her again. She is one of those people that leaves an impression on you- hard working, humble, and whip smart. I recommend her to anyone looking for a smart, hard working, and disciplined communications or fundraising professional.

Samantha is a person that strives to make a difference in her community and in the lives of people around her. She is dedicated to her work and is always looking for ways she can improve herself and grow in her field. She is extremely organized and is able to manage many projects simultaneously with great success. It was a pleasure working with Samantha and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to work closely with her during my years at ESNL.
