Phil Levy, former Sr. Vice President at eFunds and Diane’s Manager and current VP of eCommerce Solutions at First Data Corporation:
Diane is a very creative marketing professional with a strong understanding of business-to-business marketing programs. She is very diligent and delivers programs on-time while measuring and reporting results back to Sales channels and Management. Diane is a team player and enjoyable to work with.
Carlisha Brown Robinson, Lead Product Manager at the ESM Center of Excellence & Customer Support, BMC Software:
If you are looking for an energetic and creative mind to take your marketing programs to the next level, then Diane is your lady. In working with her during one of the most shaping times for the Product Management and Marketing organization within the company, (Barbara) Diane exuded the essential characteristics and “get it done right” work attitude that made her results both on target and on time. Being able to collaborate effectively with many facets of the organization from engineering, field sales and consultants, and marketing was a strong point for her and thus made her a great part of the larger team that achieved bottom line growth for the business. To her future employer – boy are you lucky!
Julie Fergerson, former VP at eFunds and current VP of Emerging Technologies at Ethoca Limited:
Diane is an exceptional writer and is very creative. She could crank out good content very quickly. She could also turn my content into a very polished piece of work quickly.
Dana Noeske, former Product Manager at Lucent Technologies and current Forecasting Planning Leader at GE Aviation:
I worked with Diane on numerous projects and was always amazed by her passion, her intimate knowledge of the product and market requirements, and the ability to create and communicate the exact message necessary. Her work ethic was exemplary, and I can not emphasize enough what a pleasure it was to work with her. Her enthusiasm, expertise and knowledge were invaluable — both to me personally and to the company. I would wholeheartedly endorse Diane on both a professional and personal level.
Matt Habich, former Senior Product Manager at BMC and current Branch Manager at Siemens Water Technologies:
Diane and I worked closely at BMC software, where we were both senior-level product marketing professionals. Diane is a VERY talented writer and marketer.
Laura Beck, former Executive VP at Porter Novelli and current CEO at Too Short Industries:
Diane is a joy to work with! A very professional and intelligent client who immediately becomes a true partner to the vendor (in this case, us, a PR agency). Diane worked hand in hand with us to help ensure we all were successful, she provided all the information we needed, and helped make things happen. She was encouraging and recognized and appreciated our good work, was always firm, but fair. This kind of approach is so appreciated by agency people and it fostered a long term relationship for us at PN Austin with Diane. We would work with her again in a heart beat.
Ron Stone, former Senior Product Marketing Manager at BMC Software and current Market Management Executive:
Diane has a great feel for her customers and provides marketing deliverable that hit the profile of her target segment. From collateral to launch campaigns, Diane’s strong customer orientation and dedication to schedule and quality allowed her to complete her plans attaining high customer satisfaction and sound results. I strongly recommend her for complete and high quality marketing programs and collateral.
Cindy Phillips, former Product Manager at BMC Software and current Managing Director/Founder at LaFrance International:
Diane is the person you want when you have too much work, too little staff, and need someone that can fly without supervision. She has an exquisite eye for detail and knows where to put her effort for maximum results.
Barb Johnston, former Documentation Manager at Mobile Armor and current Technical Writer and Business Analyst:
Without being familiar with our company or our products and with very little guidance, Diane was able to produce high quality data sheets for Mobile Armor. I would definitely recommend her work. Her top qualities? Great results, personable, and on time.
Bill Robbins, former Public Relations Manager at Porter Novelli and current PR Manager at BMC Software:
Diane was a client during my time at Porter Novelli when we worked together to introduce a new eFunds product to key industry analysts. She was a pleasure to work with and I was constantly impressed with her marketing knowledge and leadership. Throughout this successful project, everyone on my team loved working with Diane. I especially admired her ability to manage and communicate the launch of this program within her eFunds organization. Her executives always knew and understood what we were doing and what we needed to succeed. I would love to have an opportunity to work with Diane again.
Nishi Kumar, Application Architect at eFunds (now Fidelity National Information Services):
Diane is very professional, bright and intelligent. I had an opportunity to work with her in eFunds. Her talent and inter personal skill always impressed me. She is an asset for any organization.
Kevin Kessler, former Sr. Technical Writer at eFunds (now Fidelity) and current Sr. Technical Writer at Oracle:
I worked with Diane at eFunds during a time when I was responsible for maintaining the company’s websites. Diane coordinated marketing materials for two established products, as well as a new product that was just going to market. In support of these products, Diane created high-quality marketing collateral and coordinated online marketing events that, judging from the number of user registrations that we received, got results. A solid professional, Diane is easy to work with and a fine writer.
Mary Knickerbocker, former Copywriter/Marketing Specialist at BMC Software and current Contract Copywriter:
Diane is a detail-oriented person who will go above and beyond what is required to get a project completed correctly and on time. She is self-motivated, resourceful, and requires no supervision. Give her an assignment and the objective, then step back and watch her soar!
David Moreland, former Webmaster at Lucent Technologies and current Webmaster at American Eagle Airlines:
I have worked with Diane on a number of projects and cannot emphasize enough what a pleasure it was to work with her. Her enthusiasm is very contagious and her expertise and knowledge were invaluable. I would wholeheartedly endorse Diane on both a professional and personal level.”
Dave Wenger, former President at I.D. University and current Director of Communications at the McCombs School of Business, University of Texas:
Diane’s reputation proceeds her. “Professional, positive, and a great sense of shared responsibility.” I discovered that all of that is true. Diane keeps all the details together, while never losing sight of the guiding vision. The ideal partner for any consultant.
Richard Jennings, former Department Manager at Texas Instruments and current Software Marketing Executive:
Diane is a good worker, industrious, diligent, smart, cheerful, reliable. Good attention to detail. She is a particularly good writer. Gets along well with co-workers and customers. I strongly recommend her to anyone looking to add Sales/marketing staff.
