Getting to Know Today’s Featured Empjoyee: Amanda Oliver!

Amanda is a 30 year old proud Millennial and is known for her colorful personality. After being let go for refusing to take a $15,000 pay cut, she pursued her dream of writing as a career path.
 
She now works for OrionCKB, one of the leading direct response ad agencies, and actually, truly enjoys going to work.
 
Because she realized that many others were stuck in joyless jobs, she began a side hustle to help them not only figure out what they should be doing, but also how to help them land their dream job.
 
Since she clearly hates free time, she also freelance writes for Canva.com and handles social media for two other websites. 
 
When she’s not keeping herself busy, Amanda enjoys reading for fun, traveling with her husband of almost six years, fostering dogs, and spoiling her own pup, Talulah Belle.
