Testimonials
"I miss Jean a lot. Her creative capacity as a video producer is outstanding. We miss her creativity now that she's gone, and I wish we had her back. Jean and I worked together for more than 14 years. I was the videographer and editor, she was the producer and scriptwriter. Together we did some mighty fine (even award-winning) work. She could take an otherwise boring subject and make it interesting. That's her gift - creativity. So, would I recommend Jean for video or any other position that requires creativity? Absolutely! PLUS, she is also a person who is always in a good mood and always has a smile on her face. Jean would be a wonderful staff or freelance addition for any employer."
