Job Reviews on PPH
by David S on 07 Jul 2011
When it was finally returned the work was first class.However, clearly no experience of scanning newsprint. Another freelancer sent the same work did it two weeks faster, with no queries and to the same standard.

Kathryn was easily the more suitable from those that bid for the job. I hope to use her for the second part of the project. Thanks again.

Kathryn was my first choice having completed the first part of the project. She carried out my instructions correctly and did an excellent job for me. Well recommended
Work Experience
I have a BA in Professional Communications from Alverno College - which is located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in America. I moved to the UK eleven years ago and I have worked for several major companies and not-for-profit organisations (international disaster, special education, tourism and theatre sectors) within marketing and fundraising roles both in the US and UK.
My experience includes writing newsletters, direct mail, leaflets, brochures, speeches, web copy, case studies, bids and reports to sponsors, and planning/scripting special events/awards presentations.
I also have experience proofreading documents such as e-books, reports, website copy and creative writing. I am a versatile writer who can quickly familiarise myself with a new subject matter and write confidently about it.
