Writing

"It is extremely rare to find someone of Cynthia's caliber. As a colleague, she is a vital member of our team, who is multi-talented, diligent, and hardworking. Cynthia's creative and inspiring style of writing has delivered an outstanding impression on our clients to say the least. The enthusiasm that she brings to our agency is also second to none. It's been an absolute pleasure working with Cynthia over the past few years, and I look forward to continue working with her over the long haul."

"I worked with Cynthia for many years, and her responsibilities, as a vice-president, included writing manuals for the company's operations, which were of a highly technical nature, and documenting the company's policies and procedures, which ranged from legal to human resources areas. In my opinion, Cynthia did an outstanding job of taking complex material, and presenting it accurately in a concise, but readable format. Her work was a valuable component in the company's achievements and successes.

"It is a given that Cynthia has excellent skills across the board in writing, communication, marketing and teaching, but what sets her apart is her ability to effectively communicate her knowledge to others. It is rare to have a combination of knowing about a topic and being able to explain it to someone else through writing or knowing what to do and being able to teach others to do it well. Cynthia has that unusual gift of a love for her craft and the ability to impart that love of her craft through her writing, communication, and humor."
