I realized I had the security of knowing that if things got off track, which they didn’t, I knew how to respond and get the interview back on track. Jason was so expert in my media training. I was very comfortable with each interview. I had his tip sheets with me on every interview as well.”

It was amazing. I was thrilled to be able to converse at a significant level with people of that caliber.
