Sonia Maslovskaya
Maddy is an exceptional cruise manager and travel professional! She has an impressive knowledge and expertise on the areas she cruises through. She is able to share a wealth of information on history, architecture, art, music, cuisine and other aspects of cultures and heritages of the many countries she is guiding her guests through. And she can do that in a light-hearted and entertaining way. Her guests are not only exceptionally happy as she exceeds their expectations, they feel like they made a friend for a lifetime. Maddy has a gift of working with people and making them feel special, valued and understood. Not only is she known as one of the top cruise managers in the industry, she is also an outstanding trainer and resource for others. When I worked with Maddy, she put together numerous trainings, shared best practices and mentored other cruise managers. She also appeared in a number of virtual events for AmaWaterways, where she was able to share her expertise during live broadcasts to large audiences. Each time during these broadcasts and live events, she was cheered on by past guests and travel advisors who were lucky enough to be on her cruises, and won the hearts and minds of prospective travelers. What strikes me about Maddy the most, is that she never rests on her laurels and is always eager to go above and beyond.

Maddy is an inspiration and a trustful person that one can rely on.
Very knowledgeable, engaging and always available to assist while on training when doubts or questions arise.
As a Cruise Manager, she is excellent as well, one of the best and the kindest.
A unique feature is her sincere and warm giggle/ laugh, one of the warmest and most infactuous in the industry. -

I met Maddy at the very beginning of my career on the river cruise ships when I was a receptionist. She was kind and super organized and it was always a real pleasure to work with her. All of this was confirmed when I started training for the Cruise Manager position, she was my mentor, and the way she organized the whole process was extraordinary. Maddy's a true professional, devoted to her job and the company, with a profound understanding of what the Cruise Manager job is and what it takes for it to be performed on a truly high level. I'm thankful for the opportunity to learn from her and for all of her dedication and support. Maddy is a true Superstar.
