James: Chicago, Illinois
My name is James Marino and I have worked with Jennifer Abrams for almost two years at Skadden, APRs, Slate, Meagher and Flom. I have the pleasure to say that she has provided exceptional service to the firm in that time. Jennifer approaches her work with a professional and considerate attitude tailoring tasks to each of the personal needs of the employee.
I have recently completed college but left with a few extra pounds that tends to come with higher education. After a two year commitment working with the firm I plan on joining as an Officer in the United States Marine Corp. I have to prepare myself physically to fulfill various fitness requirements before entering Boot Camp. I needed to gain muscle mass but still maintain a lean build to allow for long distance runs. I came to Jennifer and explained my situation and she over the past two years has created numerous workouts as I approach my entrance into the Marines. Her workouts have evolved as I approach entrance exams to put me into the shape that I need to compete for the Officer Candidate School.
She has offered specific anaerobic and aerobic exercises with guidance on executing them properly through each stage of my development. Workouts have not become boring or repetitive due to her varying each work out plan as I move towards my goals. This has been extremely important I tend to bore easily with the same old workout routine over any stretch of time. In addition to work outs she has offered explanations and advice for nutrition and eating habits allowing me to make the most from each workout. I have also become aware of fitness organizations that Jennifer has recommended to put me in touch with others attempting to reach my specific goals. This has allowed me to find the camaraderie to maintain my discipline for working out. Her approachability truly allows me to come to her with any concerns or questions regarding my development.
It is my firm belief that without the expert guidance that Jennifer has offered I would not be in the position I am today. The workouts and guidance have maintained my focus on obtaining the shape I need to serve in the United States Military.
