“Jane is an absolute delight to work with. She’s a great writer and editor, ready to jump into any work required and has the skills and know-how to work independently and as part of a team. She’s also just a lovely person and I would work with her again any chance I get.”
“Jane’s enduring professionalism, expert attention to detail, and ability to wordsmith just about any project under the sun is why she has been our go-to copywriter since 2012.”
“Jane radiates a sense of calm that makes her a pleasure to be around. She goes about her work with a great deal of professionalism and dedication. I have had the pleasure of working with her on a couple of occasions, and I can’t wait until the next opportunity comes up. If you have a chance to work with Jane, grab it.”
