What previous supervisors have said about
me…Doug Swanson, Ed.D Professor & PR Coordinator,
Communications Department at CSUF
“Aimee was the account executive for Fullerton Arboretum, the first paying
client signed up for PRactical ADvantage. The client came to us
requesting a communications campaign that would streamline and
simplify the Arboretum’s public communications, as well as help boost the
Arboretum’s public image. Aimee was a strong leader of this effort. She
demonstrated outstanding abilities in strategic planning, research, and
writing. She used social media creatively and effectively. The Arboretum
team’s campaign was among the best we’ve seen in the two years PR AD
COMM has been operational. Aimee demonstrated excellent preparation
for entry into the professional workplace, and has my strong
recommendation. She has exceptional talent, leadership skills, and is a
genuinely nice person. I would have no hesitation hiring her for a position
in advertising/ marketing/ PR”
