"Holdren Design delivers cutting edge design
with an eye on detail, timeline and budget."
- Jennifer Williamson, Senior Director Human Resources,
Strategic Initiatives and Communications, Sodexho
"Working with Holdren Design has been very rewarding. We use them
for all of our "overflow" projects that our in-house design team cannot do.
Maria is so pleasant and easy to work with and her creativity and great
ideas are completely in line with our needs. She is quick and efficient
and does what needs to be done to get the job finished on time and with
accuracy. We wouldn’t hesitate to work with
her team again and again!"
- Lisa Hertzog, Multimedia Designer,
Health Care Brand Management, Sodexho
"Maria listened to what I wanted and created a professional and
functional website that I was proud to show off to my customers.
She was very responsive and completed the project within my
timeline and budget requirements. Thanks, Maria"

"I have been in positions of food service sales, marketing and
operations for 30 years. It was as Director of Marketing for Sodexho’s
large account segment from 2000 - 2006, that I met and began to work
closely with Maria Holdren. Maria is tireless in her creative effort.
Her ability to listen to our needs and respond on time, with enthusiasm
and many options that are on target amazes me and the clients I serve.
She works well within defined budgets and, on the occasion that some-
thing has to be re-worked, she is right there with even more wonderful
ideas! When my needs call for design, I call Maria Holdren FIRST!"
- Deming Yaun, General Manager, Sodexho at St. Johns University
"Maria Holdren has produced a lot of work for me during my 4 year
employment with Sodexho as a Senior Marketing Manager, and
continues to support my creative and graphic design needs for my
current consulting company, Saba Business Group. I have worked
with various graphic artists at Sodexho, however I chose to work
exclusively with Maria Holdren on all my marketing initiatives and
growth strategies. Maria has the ability to translate my vision, ideas,
and each comprehensive message into images, logos and artwork
that encompasses it all, better than anyone else I have ever encoun-
tered, and has the unique skill to deliver what I’m looking for every
time! She has a special artistic ability when it comes to creating and
developing images that deliver a powerful message and build a
strong revenue building brand. Maria is definitely someone you want
to have on your team in today’s competitive and aggressive business
climate. She is very efficient, timely, client oriented, professional,
reliable, and is absolutely great to work with! I will continue to use
Maria’s artistic know-how exclusively for all my future business
and marketing growth needs."

immediate attention and continuous ingenuity. In order to keep up

of the food service industry’s marketing needs have continually
exceeded my expectations and my customers’. No matter the project,
big or small, I can always count on Holdren Design to be there for all
my marketing needs!"
