Career & Business Coaching Testimonials:
"I was fortunate enough to have Andrea as my Digital Marketing Instructor. Her passion, and knowledge of the various levels of Marketing, only made my interest of this field grow even further. I could go on and on about her expertise in SEO, KPI, social & digital media, lead & demand generation, and email marketing, however, one thing I would emphasize is her willingness to always lend a hand. As her student, I was never afraid to ask questions or to ask for help. I felt very comfortable with her, and it came from the fact that she genuinely cared for her students. Learning ALL about what Digital Marketing has to offer is definitely not easy during a 10-week course, but Andrea’s style of teaching was interactive, engaging, and extremely detail-oriented. I can honestly say we became immersed in the field of Marketing! I’m truly honored to know Andrea, and would consider her as a mentor. There are just not enough good things to say about her, and I hope to always have her as a contact for the years to come! "

"I hired Andrea to teach a personalized social media class for my company. It was an informative, professional, and fun experience. She is very knowledgable in her field of expertise. I hired her another time just for myself for some additional teaching and again, was very impressed."
Kathrin Troxler
"I have been working with Andrea for several months in business coaching. She understands my path and the direction I want to go, then suggests and guides me, so that I am able to reach my objectives in the time frame I set for myself. I have now a much clearer understanding on what I have to do. Whenever questions come up I can either just bounce them off her or she assists me by assessing a situation and then make the best possible decision. What a great asset to have in my corner."
Susanna Haynie

"Andrea is such an awesome coach! She is knowledgable about so many different concepts and helps you apply them into your lifestyle. Talking with her is so easy as she is easy-going and listens well.
