Vanessa brings a wealth of expertise and experience to any organization looking to build a unified training program.

What people say
Interns at GEORGIA Magazine wear many hats, and Vanessa handled all those responsibilities adroitly. Her work ethic, journalistic DNA and life experiences gave her a leg up on this position. She always arrives at work early and actively seeks out assignments. I would heartily recommend her for any position.
