I have known Breanna through Toastmasters International, for many years. She lights up a room like no one else, and has the ability to illuminate the best in those around her, with her sincere, insightful, and bright spirit. I have also been her client, and as a result of her inspiration, and "accountability" assignments, There are poems in existence which have blessed many people, and made both hard-bound print and digital presence in distinguished companies such as Simbol Materials, who printed my poem "Scientists Rock" in their inaugural newsletter, and hard bound book celebrating the completion of their new geothermal brine extraction facility on the Salton Sea. As "Duke" the Mascot, for the Oracle/Java One open World 2012, my poem "Why I give 100%" was given a page, with photograph, on Java One's official blog. Also, a song I wrote the day after an assignment she gave to tell the world who i am, now has part of it that will be sung by two elementary schools in the San Leandro Unified School District, next school year. Breanna is the real deal if you need encouragement, or clarity of vision. She is wise, knowledgeable, and caring. I will forever consider her a part of my success as a poet. Sincerely, W.
