"Madalyn shadowed the FOX Richmond Promotions Manager and myself at the 2014 Central Virginia National Kidney Walk and was an enormous asset to the team. She took photos, to be used for social media; helped run the FOX Richmond tent, greeting walkers and event attendees; and assisted with station promotion. Madalyn is friendly, intelligent and quick to learn and help out. She is delightful to work with and would make an excellent addition to any team."
