"Mandi has exemplary leadership skills that would be an asset to any team. She is a dream collaborator, consistently showing up early with model preparedness and going above and beyond in her role.

Mandi ensures that every project she works on is a reflection of her best work and is adept at balancing a sharp eye for detail with effective time management.

Testimonials
"I can’t praise working with Mandi enough. Not only did she dissect my script intellectually, but she completely immersed herself in the narrative and in the characters. I trusted her insights and suggestions because she got to the heart of my story. Her coverage was in-depth, communicated clearly in a supportive manner, and with passion. I was inspired and motivated to write the next draft. She opened my eyes to ways I could improve my story and writing skills, and ignited my imagination on how to fix what wasn’t working. Her instincts and insights are dictated not only by her work as a writer, but also as an actor and director. I was beyond impressed and will definitely hire her again.
She truly has a gift."

"The world needs more play and Mandi can help us get there! I attended two of Mandi’s Writing Through Play workshops that she tailored for an academic audience during our York University graduate student association’s summer writing retreat.
Mandi was amazing! Her activities are fun and designed to inspire creativity, something all writers need. Mandi helped me to access different parts of my inner self that I don’t usually consider while writing. When I use Mandi’s techniques now, the words just flow.
Mandi’s workshops are suitable for anyone who needs or wants to write, no matter the profession."

AI Usage Statement
As the world becomes inundated with AI tools, I strive to maintain transparency, integrity, and my individual expression.
Being a life-long writer, artist, and communications specialist by trade, I hold firm boundaries against using AI tools to write my content and generate my work.
I may use supplemental AI tools such as Photoshop's Generative Expand and Canva's BG Remover in the execution of my work, but they are used solely as supplemental tools—not replacements.
With the AI boom and rapid development of global impacts, I believe it's important to make conscious, informed decisions, minimize reliability on AI, and maintain transparency regarding its use.
Below you can find a list of the tools I use in my work and how I use them.
