James Plotnik
RECOMMENDATIONS
"I hired James to oversee project management tasks for my clients at my public relations firm. James always went beyond my expectations, producing extremely detailed work and providing superior service to my clients. On one task, I had James research suitable grants for a nonprofit client; the client was very impressed by the professional proposal that James created. Another great thing about him is that he made me look great in front of my clients! With his enthusiasm and innovative ideas, James would be an excellent asset to any company."
Top qualities: Great Results, Personable, Creative
~Jim Guttau, Owner of Guttau Public Relations, hired James as a General Contractor
“James worked as my Development Assistant and when I left Logan School he took over all development responsibilities as the Interim Director of Development. He took on a wide range of duties and performed well - building relationships with donors and parents as well as planning and implementing various events including a $100,000 auction. James is detail oriented, organized and an ability to multi-task. James was also enjoyable to work with with a good sense of humor.”
~Tammy Evevard, Vice President of Development, Life Teen, Inc., managed James at The Logan School for Creative Learning
"As an Executive Board member, I was thrilled when James created, and now maintains, Facebook and Twitter accounts for Between Friends' YPG (Young Professionals Group). These accounts are always up to date and give more legitimacy to our group by increasing our presence through social networking. James is responsible for growing awareness of Between Friends and YPG through his diligence in updating these sites with event information, volunteer opportunities and other news from Between Friends and YPG. There are definitely people who are now aware of our group because of Facebook and Twitter who were not before, and we have James to singlehandly thank for that. We are fortunate that he is part of our Board!"
~Alison Ferrari, VP of Membership, Between Friends Young Professionals Group
"I met James at the University of Colorado in Boulder more than eight years ago and he has been a family friend since then. Although I have not worked with James directly I can attest to his good character and exceptional work ethic. I have been impressed with the professional way that he has conducted his employment search since relocating to Phoenix. Additionally, he has pitched in to help us with our charitable work in Mexico and is always an example to others.
Over the years I have watched James mature into a self motivated professional that would be an asset to any organization. Unfortunately we do not have any openings in any of the organizations I am involved in or we would be interested in his employment."
