"Lisa Shenkle ROCKS! She has to be one the most engaging, easy going, and superb publicists and personalities in the industry. I truly enjoyed, and continue to treasure, my experience with Ms. Shenkle during my tenure with Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey. Her actions, which are professional, excellent, precise, accurate, attentive, and genuine, speak louder than any advertisement could ever hope to do. You would do yourself and/or your company a monumental service by having Lisa Shenkle represent you."
