Here’s the Scoop.

"Except for a relatively short period when she left to explore life in Japan, I managed and worked with Alexandra from 2007 to when I retired from Creative at Walmart.com in 2019. I can honestly say it was one of the most enjoyable and fulfilling working relationships of my late career. Alexandra was our point person when it came to SEO, championing the discipline throughout the organization and sharing her in-depth knowledge in her usual methodical, patient way -- and keeping us all up to speed as the technology and application evolved. Several years ago she was instrumental in helping me recruit, hire and manage a team of off-site product description writers, and her outstanding efforts contributed to regular promotions and a consistent rise in the organization. But aside from her technical expertise and institutional knowledge, Alexandra is the kind of team member I always valued most -- warmly personable, highly engaged, and fun to work with. Any issue I had to deal with was always immediately closer to resolution when I added Alexandra to the mix. I'd encourage any hiring manager to snap up this candidate and it would be very wise of Walmart not to let this extraordinarily talented individual be acquired by a competitor."

"I had the pleasure of collaborating with Alexandra on search engine optimization (SEO) projects at WMT. She played a pivotal role in contributing to SEO projects, while simultaneously championing SEO knowledge throughout the organization. As an authority in SEO copywriting and adhering to e-commerce industry best practices, Alexandra combines her expertise with a delightful personality, unwavering commitment, and an impressive ability to deliver results."

"I like to say that my favorite thing about Alexandra is that she laughs at my jokes, but really, my favorite thing about Alexandra is that she makes my work life pleasant and easy. She joined Walmart as a copywriter in 2007, and I remember that era with fondness – laughter, collaboration, and a shared sense of purpose in creating great content. Much to my chagrin, Alexandra scooted off to Japan 18 months later to do noble things like "travel the world" and "teach English." That's all well and good, but I was personally quite annoyed to lose one of my favorite colleagues. Yet, this story has a happy ending. Alexandra returned to the 'Mart in 2011 to join the SEO team, and since then, she's taught me a wealth of information about not only SEO, but my most dreaded enemy: Excel! Yes, everything I know about Excel I learned from Alexandra. She helped my creative brain understand formerly-inscrutable formulas such as concatenation and VLOOKUP. In fact, I attribute most of my more technical professional skills to Alexandra. Alexandra is just wonderful to have around on any editorial team: she's a talented writer, excellent meeting leader and composes very funny emails. I hope to work with her for many years to come."
