    — Susan Hayden, author of Now You Are a Missing Person

  • "Alyssia built an entire book publicity and marketing department for Level 4 Press . . . She's very process focused, works well with people, very smart (fast learner), and a metaphorical rock that you can count on. I highly recommend Alyssia."

    — William Roetzheim, CEO of Level 4 Press

  • “Alyssia was wonderful to work with—always quick to respond to any questions and open to any ideas I had. She encouraged me to push beyond my comfort zone to see if I could reach readers that had yet to see my books. Any author or publisher would be lucky to have such an intelligent, diligent, and all-around awesome person on their team."
