Working with Diamond, the Salida Sales Director, has been a pleasure! As a newer social worker navigating my first actual transfer process, I couldn’t have asked for a better person to work alongside. From the very beginning, she was professional, incredibly kind, and always quick to respond to any questions or updates, whether that was texting, calls or email. I’m grateful our paths crossed, and I look forward to working with her again in the future. Thank you, Diamond, for making my experience such a positive and smooth one—you are truly exceptional at what you do.
