        I have the highest praise for Amanda. While working with me as an intern at King's I could depend on her to diligently execute tasks from coordinating an extensive series of photo shoots to creating a new web site to liaising with designers for our internal clients. She worked well through video and electronic means while I was working remotely from Canada with an 8 hour time difference. She developed an understanding of politics and issues that can affect communications to staff and produced high quality writing and printed materials. Amanda also produced communication plan documents for sustainability and residence aims. Amanda's skills include proofreading, engaging writing, organisation, IT and has eye for visual design. I would definitely hire her again if I had the opportunity.
