"I have had the pleasure of engaging Carolyn as an independent advancement writer at both St. Michael's Hospital Foundation and The Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation, after a referral from a former colleague at the University of Toronto whose opinion I respect. It was one of the best referrals I ever had. 

"Not only is Carolyn a talented writer who truly understands the very niche area of advancement writing — fundraising and donor stewardship communications. She is also a consummate professional with exceptional interpersonal skills. She approaches her projects with intelligence and an inquisitive mindset. She engages with her clients and their stakeholders with diplomacy and respect. She ensures there is clarity and agreement on timelines, deliverables and expectations. And she always delivers a superior product on time. Her clients are fortunate to work with her. She is a genuine creative collaborator."
