Endorsements from Clients and Colleagues

I have known Elaine as a colleague, as a contractor, and as a collaborator for several years. In addition to her stellar writing and editing skills, I have always appreciated her fun attitude, wise counsel, and uncanny ability to work with people on all sides of a company (in this case, my clients). Best of all, she knows what the deadlines are, and she meets them! She's a true professional.

I've had the pleasure of working with Elaine for over a decade in various capacities—as a colleague, within a professional organization, and as a subcontractor for my agency. Her work is consistently impeccable. Elaine brings a rare blend of versatility, professionalism, and deep expertise in writing and editing. Whether she's supporting a nonprofit with limited resources or seamlessly integrating into a corporate communications team, she delivers high-quality results with ease. I highly recommend her for any organization in need of a skilled, reliable, and thoughtful communicator.

Elaine's diverse writing talents have engaged thousands of learners, driven employees to action, and articulated executive messages, all with insight, vision, and accessibility. Elaine is a creative communicator who can generate excitement for a single message or an entire program. She can adeptly capture and style strategic messages into concise, targeted communications. Elaine understands the power that carefully crafted and edited communications have in today's "scannable" website content, blogs, event news, or training offerings. She is a joy to work with; a truly participatory and intiative-taking team player; and a talented, adaptable writer and communicator.

She is a pleasure to work with.
