Glowing Reviews
Amy is an absolute delight to work with. Her dedication and hard work consistently deliver exceptional results. Amy was pivotal in securing impactful media coverage for us, including a TV interview with France24, a print story and podcast episode with Radio France Internationale (RFI), with AFP and more.
Amy combines a sensitive and deeply human approach to journalism with a hunger for the truth. She has placed op-eds for us putting unique focus on gender inequality in Africa, published by Al Jazeera, and has documented the systemic reasons for the boom in counterfeit drugs in Africa for an article written on our behalf for the Financial Times.
Amy's writing has garnered exposure for our projects in news outlets around the world, including NPR, The Guardian, AFP, and others. She was the rare journalist to really understand our work, to dig deeper to get the key quotes and to pursue projects to publication. She's a globe trotting journo with a fearless, can-do attitude. You'd be lucky to know her, and even luckier to have her write about you.
Working with Amy was great. Her work landed us international coverage in The Washington Post, ABC news (US), France 24, Radio France International (RFI), AFP, AP, Globe and Mail, broadcaster DW in Germany, news agency Inter Press Service (IPS), national newspaper New Vision Uganda, and more. As a result we were contacted by numerous potential investors, customers and business partners who were very impressed by the reporting on Marula Proteen Uganda Limited and our different programmes.
We weren't expecting mainstream media coverage because The Evidence is a new project and a niche area of the media but she landed nearly a whole page in the i, and we rehired her to line up new collaborations.
The public outreach team at the Clean Clothes Campaign found the training with Amy very helpful, giving us a much-needed boost for what can be a challenging space to crack. The training was accessible to and beneficial for us all, those of us who had little experience of working with media but also those who had significant experience. Amy shared vital insights into approaching journalists, gave advice on specific topics we were trying to get coverage on, flagged outlets and platforms that were not on our radar, which we really appreciated. We are already seeing results from advice that Amy gave us!"
