“I haven’t met a better writer than Vickie. And, there are few people who know and love Long Beach more.”
Marcelle Epley - President & CEO, Long Beach Community Foundation
“I’ve worked with Vickie for a decade. Not only does she write compelling collateral, her level of engagement and finished product make my job easier. Plus, she’s fearless. Vickie’s never backed down from the toughest assignments I’ve sent her way. She’s confident, responsible, and always delivers.”
Sandra Pursley - Director,
Waste Management
“Vickie’s ability to turn around projects both quickly and in ‘print ready’ quality is so helpful to me. I trust her contributions to meet the high bar, in terms of quality, that my team submits.”
Amy Larsen - Principal,
Larsen Ridge Consulting
“Vickie, your rewrite of the workplace violence compliance article is spot on. I just wanted to say good work.”
