TESTIMONIALS

What our clients are saying…

“Sandy is amazingly accomplished, but she never loses sight of the value of hunger and hard work. Sometimes her advice was literally the opposite of what my friends were saying and doing – fashion people tend to try to be ‘cool and blasé’, but Sandy taught me the importance of working against that impulse. Get there earlier, work harder, raise your hand for the stuff that no one else wants to do.”

–Marta DP., Art & Commerce

“I was already on track, but Sandy nudged me into excellence.”

“Sandy is an incredible listener – she is able to take in a tremendous amount of information and distill it. looking at the whole person, imagining them in various environments, determining where they will really thrive. this is the challenge, and it is one that Sandy takes quite seriously. Sandy is kind and caring, but always real, she doesn’t give false compliments or assurances.”

–Stephanie S., mother of client

Right away, we felt a sense of trust – in just a few meetings, she has given our daughter a sense of home; a place where she feels safe opening up, talking about herself, and exploring her options. Part of what makes that trust possible is Sandy’s dedication to her work. She is so accessible, always willing to meet, always full of questions. her passion shows. Positivity, curiosity, passion—these are not merely Sandy’s personal tools of the trade. they are also among the most important qualities she impresses upon her job-seeking clients. Our daughter is learning to ask the questions she was too shy to ask before.”
