It says a lot when someone is as thoughtful at work as they are outside of work. Talia is just that: one of the most thoughtful individuals I’ve had the pleasure of working with, and I would jump at the chance to work with her again. Talia is wildly creative, strategic, and she does her research well. She's extraordinarily savvy and her thoughtful (there's that word again) approach to media relations is refreshing. She does not miss a beat when it comes to bringing a plan to fruition.

You really shared the holistic nature of the process.”

As a freelance writer, I work with many PR people, but Talia stands out. When I interviewed a client of hers, she gave me other facts she thought I should know. These proved essential to my article, and I wouldn't have had this info had she not been paying attention to what her client did not say. She's also an enthusiastic champion for her client’s work in a way that seems genuine. I really liked working with her.
