To Whom It May Concern:
Francesca Rizzuto was a 2016 spring semester intern in the beauty editorial department at
Harper's Bazaar where I was senior editor and managed the interns. She is incredibly
well organized and on top of things. She executes requests quickly after they're asked and
does so efficiently. She often solves her own questions by naturally coming to
appropriate, mature conclusions. The beauty department at Harper’s Bazaar is very fast
paced. In any given hour, Francesca would be responsible for reaching out to press
contacts at major luxury brands to request information or products, mailing out time
sensitive packages, writing up and delivering photo shoot instructions for Hearst’s in-
house photo studio, and organizing the dozens of product samples mailed to the offices
for review. She takes her work very seriously, but is also upbeat and happy in nature. I’m
very happy I hired her.
Please reach out with any questions.
Best,
Katie Becker
