"I have worked with Brenda on several different projects over the last 15 years. I have always found her work to be strong and efficient. She is very direct and works to accomplish all of the goals set before her. If there is something about her work that a supervisor would like changed or corrected, Brenda makes every effort to adjust accordingly. I would feel very confident giving her a list of accomplishable goals and knowing that she would either get them done or request assistance or additional information if needed. Brenda's experience working with performers, technicians, animal trainers and acrobats shows that she can manage very diverse groups of individuals. She is very determined and eager to accomplish the tasks set before her."
