Client Testimonials

Dan Russoniello, AIA, LEED APPrincipal, Archer & Buchanan Architecture, Ltd.

Rosemarie has the ability to identify people, publications and potential client outlets and make valuable connections and introductions. She has written press releases, promotional pieces and extended our access to publications. I have worked with Rosemarie for many years and she continues to enthusiastically promote our firm, challenging me to reach for the next level in marketing. She is a friend and valued resource.

Fon Wang, AIA, LEED AP BD+CDirector of Historic Preservation at Ballinger

Rosemarie was instrumental in getting UCI’s name 'out there' in the design and building industry. She has suggested and implemented public relation strategies that are creative with measurable results. Best of all, we always have FUN working with Rosemarie.

Yogesh Saoji, AIA, AICP, PP, LEED AP BD+CPlanning & Urban Design Leader, DLR Group

Rosemarie has a unique ability and expertise to understand and translate the jargon filled language of architects and designers to make it easy to understand and communicate without losing its original intent. I admire her amazing patience and capacity to get things done within a very short time frame!

Voula LiacopulosCo-owner, Touching Hearts at Home

While I was Director of Business Development for Blackney Hayes Architects, my team and I hired Rosemarie to assist us with a media campaign that included press releases and articles targeted to specific publications. Rosemarie had a great network of contacts and was successful in having many articles published. She was professional, easy to work with, systematic and organized in her approach. Her work yielded great coverage and publicity for the firm.

Claudia LibrettPrincipal, 521 Atelier

Rosemarie is funny, articulate, efficient and a communications pundit for the Philly design community. We have worked together for years writing on lighting design and interior design projects, and she moves easily between disciplines.

Stefa NormantasOwner, Philadelphia Furniture Show

Rosemarie is a genius. Smart, elegant with the pen and a pleasure to work with. She's persistent where needed, collaborative, and presents opportunities outside the scope of her work for the good of her clients. If you're reading this because you're thinking of hiring her...stop reading and hire her. She's a great asset to any project.
