Testimonials
Speaking personally, she provided me with a safe space to ask questions I was too afraid to ask, and an extra set of eyes to track what I couldn’t see. Amanda also helped to shape and craft better, more specific language for my contracts which served to protect my privacy. She even gave excellent advice for how to recover my voice after a day of screaming on set! A true encyclopedia of holistic artist health! I am so incredibly grateful for Amanda and the work she does, and I look forward to the day when she has trained up an entire army of similarly equipped coordinators to disperse all over the globe.
