Carol Gniady
Former Executive Director of Public Relations and Marketing, Delgado Community College

"Eddie is a consumate communications professional who is extremely progressive in his approach to public relations and marketing. Eddie takes his responsibilities very seriously and exemplifies professionalism, providing solid guidance and assistance. 

Rachel Wulff
Former Reporter, WWL-TV

"I had the pleasure of working with Eddie on several stories. He is prompt and thorough when it comes to providing information. He understands broadcasting and what is needed to tell stories under daily deadline. Most importantly, he picks up the phone after 5PM!

Mildred Dillon
Founder, The Money Doctor

"My business and marketing was and will be forever changed because of Eddie's seeing me as bigger.' If you're feeling 'stuck' in your marketing or too shy to step out, I'd recommend finding him ASAP and sitting down for coffee.
