Career
 | This section may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. The specific problem is: Section reads like a press release with undue focus on cherrypicked reviews rather than an objective focus on her presumably vast portfolio. And if her portfolio is not vast, then perhaps these sections need to be condensed into something more reasonable. (July 2019) |
