"Amber brings a wealth of knowledge and experience in PR and social media to her work, and is passionate about contributing to the success of her clients. She is a hard worker and a pleasure to work with!"
Adrienne Palmer, Global Entrepreneurship Ambassador
Founder & Board Member of Insite Interactive
"Amber worked for me at QSI and I was always appreciative of her fun spirit and a laugh that filled the office. Digital was new to her, yet she understood that a well-rounded PR person today, must have a solid foundation in digital communications, and was willing to take on any project and task to learn. Amber did an outstanding job managing her clients and they all benefited from her communications and project management skills."
Jeannine Lee, Project Manager, Radiant Digital
former Owner/President of Quicksilver Interactive Group
"Amber is extremely reliable and one of the best designers with whom I’ve worked. She has a knack for taking limited information from clients and creating several options to meet their needs. I’d highly recommend Amber for any type of design work."

former Grants Administrator at Harold Simmons Foundation
“Amber is a creative, professional and very driven individual with a serious thirst for learning. As her supervisor at Tucker & Associates, I could always count on her to be on top of the latest industry trends and bring fresh, new ideas to the table.”
Brooke Traister, Worldwide Content Marketing Program Manager, Texas Instruments
PRSA Dallas Past President
former supervisor at Tucker & Associates Public Relations
“Amber is a proactive thinker with a very creative mind. As a fellow intern at Tucker + Associates, Amber was always tremendously helpful and eager to step up to any task asked of her. Her friendly attitude and assertiveness will make her a great addition to any team.”
Katy Hartwick, Senior Marketing Coordinator, SmithGroup JJR
former colleague at Tucker & Associates Public Relations
“Amber Freeland is a terrific writer, editor, strategist and teacher. It has been a pleasure having her as my teaching assistant this year. She was also a student in two of my classes before she became my TA. Amber has corrected my grammar, she's that good at writing and editing. When she started in my classes she wasn't up to speed on AP Style and some new technologies, but she learned all that and more in record time, and I find myself asking her for advice now and then. Amber's commitment to excellence shows through in her work and in her mentoring of younger students. I can see her in a position where she's supervising junior employees. I already consider Amber a colleague rather than a student. Her maturity and professionalism will make her an asset to any firm.” (2013 recommendation)
“She has a gift for strategic thinking necessary in today’s public relations arena and learns new skills and concepts rapidly…She is the best writer I have ever seen among hundreds of students. Everything she does is at the highest levels of professionalism. Her work ethics and integrity are impeccable.” (2014 recommendation)
