        I had the great pleasure of working with Amanda.  She came in as a BSA on our project and with no hand holding immediately became highly effective.  Using her strong analytical and business skills, she quickly nailed down requirements and streamlined our process.  She asked the needed questions and pursued the answers while working effectively with product managers, developers, QA and the client.

Amanda turned her knowledge of the requirements towards QA and developed a robust and extremely comprehensive set of test cases & scenarios for one of the most complex areas of our site.  These cases were reviewed by project management, the QA Tech Lead (myself) and the client and provided strong confidence that our test process would produce a quality product.

I absolutely hope to work with Amanda again either as a Business Analyst or a QA Analyst.

        Amanda is the kind of product owner that can take your concept, and turn it into a viable business.  She has a solid understanding of process, market research, cost benefit analysis, analytics and the ability to write a solid business plan.  
Her attention to detail will solve problems you didn't even realize might exist, as she is constantly evaluating and fine tuning scenarios using her excellent business logic. She is a great asset to any team.
