“I was consistently impressed with Diana's attitude and productivity during the time that we worked together. She has displayed all the characteristics necessary to succeed as a leader in marketing and beyond. She is extremely inquisitive and creative; always yearning to gain in-depth knowledge of the projects she has been assigned. She looked for ways to go above and beyond what is asked of her.
