Testimonials

Decades of experience, contacts, accomplishments and learning moments

2013 through 2023

Drawing on emotional intelligence and using mostly the socratic method when teaching, I have had many fans and supporters over the years. Here are just a few.

Publicity & PR

“I met Justine while she was promoting the Bicycle Art Salon and Bridge ArtSpace in Richmond, CA where I was working as the events manager and artist's coach. She never failed to make a big splash for their various events and goings-on at Bridge ArtSpace, and always drew a dynamic, engaged, and lively audience. If you are looking for publicity and online marketing for your small business, non-profit or special event I highly recommend you give her a call!”  

-SYDNEY METRICK, PHD | COACHING NON-LINEAR THINKERS

“Justine has great ideas and is a go-getter. She stays focused on the tasks at hand, and makes sure they come to fruition.”         

-MICHELE SEVILLE |ARTS & CULTURE MANAGER, CITY OF RICHMOND

SALES

“Justine is a fantastic sales person. She learns the product in depth and is able to present it in a compelling way to many different types of prospects. She could sell ice to eskimos.”

-STEPHANIE ARORA | ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE - CHAPMAN, CUBINE, ADAMS + HUSSEY

 

“Justine possesses an upbeat and positive attitude that not only impacts her own performance in a positive manner, but also serves to encourage and bolster the performance of those around her as well. She has excellent interpersonal skills both in person and on the phone--a rare combination. She works diligently and strives to be better on all projects to which she may be assigned.”

-NEIL CARLSON |INDEPENDENT MARKETING SPECIALIST

 

 “I have had the privilege of working with Justine on several occasions and I have learned that she can be counted on to be a strong contributor to any project. Her work is always clean and accurate, and her sense of humor keeps the mundane in perspective. Her abilities shine when she is asked to complete a difficult task on a tight deadline. I recommend her highly.”

-TIMOTHY ROONEY |MARKETING SPECIALIST AND PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT GURU

 

‘Quick, sharp and professional”     -NICHOLAS MCNEIL |CREATIVE DIRECTOR AT AGENCY ORANGE

 

“Justine is a rare combination of a warm/friendly/nurturing personality, mixed with a go-getter moxie, capacity for very hard work, and ingenuity. She is very positive, optimistic, and will leave no stone unturned in her efforts to work on a cause that she believes in. We worked together soliciting corporate sponsors for several events. She went above and beyond the call of duty on many occasions to deliver what she said she would do, and then some. . . instead of stopping when she hit a roadblock, or rejection, she simply smiled and delivered what she said she would do.”

-ELISSA KOESTENBAUM |SERVICES & SOLUTIONS EXECUTIVE AT XEROX

PUBLISHING

 “I have known Justine for over 10 years and have found her to be a thorough and results oriented marketing/advertising professional. As the subject of one of her newspaper interviews, I was very impressed by her attention to detail and the flair with which she presented my story. As an advertising sales rep, she is creative and customer-oriented and I am pleased to provide my recommendation.”         

-KARIN M. MOSS |EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AT MORRO BAY TOURISM BUREAU

MANAGEMENT

“Justine and I worked as Managers at Valley Yellow Pages and later Sr Account Reps at AT&T and Yellowpages.com and Justine in both instances proved to be an exceptional manager and sales rep with consistent levels of high performance meeting and or exceeding her sales quotas and objectives. She has the innate ability to ramp up quickly, understand key elements of both the product line and culture of the business she is endeavoring to dominate. Justine is focused and has an outstanding work ethic. She is a definite asset to any company who is lucky to include her amongst their ranks.”                         

-LOUIE RIVERA | EXPERTONE ACCREDITED STORAGE SALES CONSULTANT.

 

“I used to write a Music and Art column for the Gold Country Times, a newspaper Justine was the founder of. I really enjoyed working with her as an Editor. She is a great reporter, and good person too. The local news was always on time and is still in publication to this day as a great source of information!"

She suggested I check my testosterone levels which has restored my sexy drive and has shown me strategies to delay premature ejaculation. Her kind caring demeanor allowed me to transfer the "sex in my head" to the "sex in my bed"
