RECOMMENDATIONS

ANNA YAKHNICH, CREATIVE DIRECTOR

I had the pleasure of working with Marcia Cole at Canyon Ranch, where she excelled as the Director of Content. Marcia effectively managed the art department, showcasing strong leadership in overseeing designers, writers, creators, videographers, project managers, photographers and external teams. Her strategic initiatives, particularly in email and social media marketing, significantly boosted business and revenue.

Marcia's commitment to excellence is evident in establishing efficient processes, providing creative direction, meeting deadlines and in her forward-thinking approaches. Beyond her professional acumen, she inspired the entire team with per passion and effective management style. I highly recommend Marcia for her outstanding contributions and diligent work ethic.

TARIQ MUHAMMAD

MANAGING EDITOR

APPLE

It was a pleasure working with Marcia Cole on the relaunch of Black Voices and the production of our Black History Month package. I presented my vision, which started with a video concept, and she executed it above and beyond my expectations--overseeing a multi-city production within a short window--and most importantly within budget. Her understanding of digital and sales made her a huge asset to our team. I am always confident that Marcia can execute and add value to any project on which she is engaged.

JOHN PASMORE, FOUNDER, VOYAGES.TV

Having worked with Marcia on and off for something approaching a decade I wouldn't expect anything less than a smart approach to anything she does. Her attention to detail and drive singles her out as a leader.

ALFRED TADAIR, CREATIVE DIRECTOR

Marcia's concepts and her writing are always smart, always stylish. The quality of her work and her strong work ethic makes her a valuable asset to any team.

PASCAL EHRSAM, PARTNER/ACCOUNT DIRECTOR, JWT/RMG CONNECT

Marcia is a very enthusiastic, talented and creative person who consistently delivered high-quality work for the accounts (L'Oreal, Remy Cointreau, Evian) we worked on together while at NuRun.

DREAM HAMPTON

WRITER & AWARD-WINNING FILMMAKER

I've written at two separate titles with Marcia as my assigning editor. She is incredibly professional. Her assignments are clear, her direction detailed and her deadlines are realistic. She is unafraid to take risks, willing to explore themes and stories from unexpected angles. With Marcia as an editor I received some of my most challenging assignments, encouraging me to grow at a time in my career when I could have slipped into formulaic reproductions of my previous work. For that I am grateful.

SUZANNE BOYD, EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

I worked with Marcia Cole on the launch of Suede magazine, and found her to be a highly skilled, passionate and indefatigable editor with a wide variety of key contacts within and without the industry. As such she was integral to that project’s conceptual and editorial success. The launch of her beautifully executed online publication ambermag.com shows her entrepreneurial spirit and vision in identifying a need that is not being served and taking action to fill the niche.
