Testimonials
"...She spoke with such enthusiasm about her job as the Director of Women's Programming for ABC Radio Networks and Executive Producer of Satellite Sisters. I wanted to feel about my work the way she felt about hers. Thankfully, she seemed to really tune into me and the abbreviated story of how I arrived at this point in my life. Our conversation came to a close with her saying "I'd like to mentor you".
Within days we were coordinating a lunch meeting, and shortly thereafter, she invited me to sit in on a show. That's when my mind opened up to the idea of producing for radio. It was as if she knew exactly where I belonged and she brought me right to it. She asked that I keep her abreast of my career search and promised to keep me in mind for any job leads she may come across. She kept her word. When an Associate Producer position became available in her division, she put me in the running. After a fairly intense interview and application process, I got the job. And I love it!"
