It was a pleasure to share the same office with Amanda Parish over in RTD's Civil Rights Division. Amanda was in charge of creating a new compliance training for RTD's Transit Equity Office, both online and in-person. This training is required by current and future bus operators for a long time to come. In addition, to contributing her skills for this training, she took time to get to know her coworkers including myself. Amanda knows 10 languages! She is an individual who tackles questions analytically and effectively since she holds strong written skills that can be seen through her communication with others. Amanda would engage in deep dialogue with me about her discernment process and navigating through her career. This type of information is highly valuable for individuals such as myself who need advice about navigating through careers and identifying work where I can best utilize my faculties. Amanda proved I was completely wrong about not being able to tie the English writing discipline with business. Having a Bachelors degree in English, she showed me her discipline is capable of partaking in various areas in our office considering her talent with precise writing. Overall, it was a pleasure to have Amanda with our team.
Amanda is a great leader at Booz Allen, I've witnessed her professional demeanor and leadership at the Toastmasters group. Not only is she working through her Leadership and Speaking guides at a break neck pace, she's taken on substantive leadership roles in the group, and she's become an in-demand speaker in McLean. For example, I know she was invited to present to a Civil market team about "Mentoring Circles," a program that she played a large role bring into the focus of leadership.
In 2021 I walked into my first Toastmasters meeting, and it was Amanda's speech that inspired me to join. I remember saying to myself, I want to learn to do that! Amanda's ability to organize thoughts and speak them into a compelling message is reflective of her achievement as a Distinguished Toastmaster. A skill and status that takes years to accomplish. Since then, I have had the pleasure of working alongside Amanda in a leadership capacity at our Toastmasters club, where she held the position of Secretary while I served as President. Our club recently attained Select Distinguished status, largely thanks to Amanda's remarkable listening abilities, meticulous attention to detail, effective note-taking, and professional writing skills that kept us focused and organized. It would be my pleasure to recommend Amanda to any prospective employer, and invite you to contact me directly for more information. Her skills and qualities will bring great value to your team as they did mine.
As a trainer with a professional focus on Instructional Design and Curriculum Development, I was impressed by Amanda's ability to grasp complex guidelines. During her tenure as a Generative AI Evaluation Specialist for the GlobalLogic/Google account, Amanda exceeded expectations in her performance metrics, executing thousands of high-priority evaluation tasks with a streamlined Average Handling Time (AHT). Amanda maintained a consistent weekly quality rating, demonstrating a rigorous application of proprietary principles while deconstructing claims involving more than five components per task. Beyond her technical proficiency with tools like Gemini, she was a vital asset to the Magi and Squirtle cohorts. Amanda is a data-driven expert who brings exceptional precision to any AI quality assurance (QA) team.
I certainly see her as someone who could be a leader in both her current field, and those beyond.
EXTREMELY happy with this. Thank you so much! I will send all source info next go-round. Thank you thank you thank you. In just two days you've done so much to help me meet my deliverables, make our customers very happy, and improved our products. Thanks again, Amanda
Amanda and I worked on Assignment Search projects together. Amanda is a very efficient and responsible team member and a pleasure to work with. She is experienced in working in Agile environment and the technical documentation she produces is of the highest quality and targets the correct user group.
Since each base on this program has only one technical writer, I am lucky to work with someone as charismatic as Amanda. She is highly intelligent and considers the future. She also has excellent input for document standardization to unify and support the diverse situations of the bases. She is an excellent team player.
My name is Marco Hopfner and I am pleased to offer my recommendation of Amanda Parrish. During my relationship with Amanda, over the past year, I have experienced a highly motivated, hard-working individual who consistently performs on a high level for the overarching goal of the organization and shows great dedication towards any professional duties. I worked really close with her and it was always a positive experience. She is taking any kind of conversation and feedback well, she has a positive and friendly attitude, and is always responsive to any new challenges thrown her way. I am convinced that Amanda will excel in whatever path and role that she sets her mind to in the future.
