“As a media manager at a large hospital, I realized at the start of the pandemic that we were going to have to switch to virtual interviews. After Ashley’s media training, we successfully pivoted to Zoom interviews, and one of our Zoom series on healthcare heroes won a public relations award. Ashley and her partner were terrific and to this day, we use their tips as a road map to train our healthcare professionals for media interviews.”
