Thanks to Tiffany, we now have a social media presence, an e-newsletter, and far more publicity for programs than I have ever had time to create. She is an invaluable resource, an excellent writer, and she can see opportunities for marketing beyond what I could imagine. I’m sure she would be a valuable addition to anyone interested in having excellent outreach.
