"Alyssa wrote articles for several editions of the magazine I was an editor and editor-in-chief of in 2019-20. Ever since our first conversation, it was clear that Alyssa brings energy and great ideas as well as a structured and focused approach to her work. Working with Alyssa has been smooth and comfortable, knowing that I could always rely on her to submit great work within the deadlines, and to work equally well with large tasks like proposing and outlining articles on her own, and smaller tasks such as editing and finalizing articles started by others. I give Alyssa nothing but my fullest recommendations." - Anne Winberg, former Editor-in-Chief of WeAnimate Magazine and Founder of VOID International Animation Film Festival
