Lisa- is very nice. I registered with them and they are pretty good about calling me for work. Unfortunately I am never available when they call. I wish that they could send more work my way they are a great bunch of people to deal with....

Note that all reviews are individual contributions and do not represent the opinion of the site administrator. They have not been independently verified, so there is nothing to stop someone from posting a pack of lies. Some agencies with great reviews may be really bad, and some agencies with bad reviews may be really great. As with everything online, be careful and don't believe everything you read. I take no responsibility for what comes up when you google yourself.
