“I have seen Pauleanna grow since 2009 and not only am I proud to see her develop into the amazing person she is today. But I am also honored to have experienced her in her first “Think Big” workshop. It was a very uplifting experience which not only opened your eyes but your mind as well. I can’t wait to see many more of these to come.” Maryam Toson, Freelance Photographer

“ Your words and story were truly inspirational and heart-warming. My students really connected with your story and left class today realizing how important life is and started thinking about what they are going to do with their future. I hope you realize the positive effect you have on students and continue to spread your message. For the rest of the day, I was telling my fellow colleagues about you and how you were able to turn your life around. It is extremely motivating as a teacher to hear stories like yours. Also, I was so impressed with both your presentation and communication skills. By asking the students questions and integrating them into your speech helped them be further involved. I would love to have to inspire my class again! - Nadine Cooper, Leadership teacher, North Park Secondary School

“Pauleanna is very detailed and wears her heart on her sleeve. She is focused on the task and shows up prepared. Her fashion sense is amazing and her speaking skills are on point. She spoke and presented at my UNIQUE workshop for young girls, and they all loved her. I look forward to working with her in the near future. -Elizabeth Correia, Program Facilitator, UNIQUE

“Pauleanna Reid attended my grade 11 fashion class at Mississauga Secondary School in 2009 to discuss career opportunities in the fashion and design industry. Pauleanna was flexible and accommodating and approached the students with confidence, enthusiasm, and compassion. The students were hanging off of every word and it was obvious that they could relate to her down-to-earth demeanour, friendly smile, and “hard-work-pays-off” attitude. Her passion for life permeates everything that she touches and is simply contagious; she will be an inspiration to many, and her writing will give voice to many of the voiceless. I would love to work with Pauleanna again, and I wish her all the best in the future. - Christine Micallef, Family Studies Teacher, Mayfield Secondary School

“I have had the pleasure of working with Pauleanna at Mediaplanet, where she was assigned as a journalist for my publication on unionized labour for the National Post. As a publisher working on tight deadlines, punctuality, efficiency, creativity and competence in a journalist are so crucial. Pauleanna had clearly mastered these qualities, because her work was impeccable. She worked very well under the pressure and swiftly met all deadlines with pristine results. I would confidently recommend her to anyone who is looking to get work done well and on time.” - Tyra Bouhamdan, Publisher, Media Planet Publishing House Canada

I had a few struggles obtaining the material from other contributors not submitting content on time, so I commissioned Pauleanna to work on several pieces of editorial for my most recent publication, one of which was to cover a celebrity cover story. She was very good at staying on top of me, while being courteous and understanding during the entire process. She was very professional, yet so personable it was like working with an old friend. She was even able to turn around a last minute piece in less than half an hour and it was so beautifully written it was submitted for print upon first draft! I would recommend her services to anyone, but I’m afraid too because I want to keep her all to myself. -Stephanie Barbosa, Publisher, Media Planet Publishing House Canada
