“During the time Shermaine worked for us, our Shanghai studio was greatly enhanced with an increase in annual revenue of 120%. Very goal oriented as well as a team player, Shermaine always delivered results, yet was easygoing. She was devoted to her work, but being a real people person, she was also extremely enjoyable to be around. She created excellent rapport with her clients and strong bonds with our teams. The projects she was assigned to were great successes and her contribution to the company’s growth initiatives was significant from conception through to execution. The dedication and initiative she has shown this business was far beyond her daily obligations and the legacy she has left is a reminder of the exceptional person she is. I believe she possesses the skills and qualifications to make her an integral member of any company.”
