The Director

Amanda Scisney - "The Director"

Operations • Cake Artist • Co-Owner

Specializing in creating cake art, writing proposals, creating graphics, and editing documents.

From an early age, Amanda has always enjoyed baking, writing, and editing. After receiving a Bachelor of Arts Degree from Columbus State University in English Literature with a concentration in Professional Writing, she later obtained a Master of Arts in New Media Journalism from Full Sail University, and was honored as the Advanced Achiever Award Recipient, earned the Course Director Award for Writing in Interactive Media, and recognized as Valedictorian.

While working as a tech researcher by day, she becomes "The Director" by night (and whenever else she's free). Between caring for her family, Amanda is an artist in her own right. She's devoted to cake design, whether researching for her next edible sculpture or developing templates for future orders, she's always developing her skills. You can find samples of her published work at AmandaMScisney.com. Follow her personal Instagram at @AmandaMScisney, and Life Forever's confectionary division Cakes By A Scisney at @CakesByAScisney.
