“When Tatyerra joined my team I knew she was really talented, but I have been excited to see her evolve into the exciting leader she is today. The thing that makes her stand out is her ability to craft not just "a" story but "the" story that needs to be told.”
Deneen Gillespie, Experienced Marketing
“I had the pleasure of hiring and managing Tatyerra at the University of Chicago, and even way back then I saw how bright her star was shining. Tatyerra was the best at everything. She was eager to learn and work, and she was a master at anything we threw her way. She was hands down the best intern I have ever managed. She is the blueprint for a young professional.”
