TESTIMONIALS


Haley Silvers
Founder of Silvers Strategic

Flerine was the first person to teach me to truly write a pitch that will engage with the person who receives it. From making sure the subject is eye-catching to ensuring the content is concise and engaging - she is the reason my pitches are well received. Many people have taught me how to pitch, but Flerine taught me how to pitch effectively. 


Hannah Parkin
former direct report as Assistant Account Executive
at Quinn PR

Fiercely loyal and dedicated to those directly reporting to her, Flerine is a firecracker, characterized by strong work ethic and intentional mentorship. As my supervisor, she was one of the first people who taught me to value myself and talents through work life balance. She also placed a strong importance on navigating teaching moments in accordance with my preferred learning style - an example of her attention to detail. Each client win or press placement on my behalf came with moments of celebration from Flerine. Every Friday she reserved time to review my performance, ensuring that positive feedback was shared and paired with opportunities for development and improvement. I am fortunate to have crossed paths with Flerine and believe that her skills and mentorship will be an incredible source of joy, depth, and elevated thoughtfulness to any team.


Lauren Polhill
former direct report as Account Coordinator
at Allied Global Marketing

Flerine taught me about the importance of time management for work life balance, planning ahead, being a team player, understanding the why behind everything we do as it relates to the overall strategy and bigger picture, never being afraid to ask questions, and having the confidence to speak up when I have an idea. Easily one of the most thorough, organized, and detail-oriented people I know, Flerine has an undeniably strong work ethic. A natural born leader, I truly believe there isn’t a problem she couldn’t solve or a situation she couldn’t expertly navigate to deliver optimal results. I hope to pass on the wisdom I’ve gained from her to future colleagues that are just starting out and be able to pay it forward.


Stefanie Szeto
former direct report as
Senior Account Executive at Quinn PR

Strategic, thoughtful, decisive, and attentive are just some of the adjectives to describe Flerine as a supervisor, co-worker, and teammate. Her uncanny ability to expertly navigate challenging waters, cut through the noise, and prioritize what is most important produced results that exceeded our clients' expectations. Flerine is a PR maven and to have her as a supervisor and co-worker means gaining a cheerleader who is fiercely dedicated to you and your company's growth.


Morgan Painvin
Business Consultant (former EVP at Quinn PR)

I loved working with Flerine. Smart, innovative, forward-thinking and enthusiastic. She was refreshing to work with and her results were off the charts. She would be an asset to any company seeking a dynamic communicator with their finger on the pulse of trends.


Tanja Yokum
VP Marketing and PR at Estiatorio Milos

Flerine has enormous talent as a publicist and did a tremendous job working for our restaurant company and handling media relations for the Rink at Rockefeller Center. Poised, articulate, well-connected, savvy about food and culture, I was extraordinarily lucky to work with her and would hire her again in a heartbeat.
