“I find Melissa to be an exceptional writer and editor with a superb eye for detail. She writes beautifully and hands in work that is above expectation and always before deadline. Melissa also pitches thoughtful and interesting story ideas. She is smart and dependable and I highly recommend her.” – Janet Poveromo, Editor-in-Chief, Vitamin Retailer
“Melissa has worked with our team at DMI on alumni magazines for three different medical/veterinary institutions, as well as a variety of e-mail marketing campaigns. She was willing to take on the challenge of completing the pieces within a tight deadline, and took the initiative to interview and develop some great articles capturing the stories of our graduates. Her writing is creative, detail oriented, and engaging to all audiences even when covering topics in complex fields like medicine. She is incredibly responsive and an absolute pleasure to work with!” – Kristine Lester, Marketing Manager, DeVry Medical International
“Before hiring Melissa, we had collaborated in a handful of situations where she was writing articles for leading trade publications and my clients served as sources. Because of these interactions, I was aware of Melissa’s writing capabilities, as well as her responsiveness and attention to detail. The industry in which we work is highly technical and she took care to ensure that my clients were represented correctly and their contributions were accurate. When I hired her to write a technical white paper, I felt comfortable with her writing skills, and, even more importantly, I trusted her care and diligence with proprietary information. Not only did she meet short deadlines, and some directional changes, she showed true skill in making a rather technical topic readable and understandable for a broad audience. The end product is quite simply outstanding. Without hesitation, I will jump at the chance to work with Melissa again in the future.” – Cheryl Tessier, Owner, Finesse Public Relations
“Melissa has written several feature articles for us on a freelance basis, involving bakery- and snack-related topics. She is a good researcher and has a comfortable writing style that would fit many applications. I recommend her as a freelance article writer and enjoy working with her.” – Lauren Hartman, Editor-in-Chief, Snack Food & Wholesale Bakery
“Melissa is a talented writer and editor with a strong eye for detail. She is equally comfortable and gifted in writing for a high-level audience (grant proposals) as she is taking dense, complex material, and stripping it down to a more elemental level (student course-ware). She is fast, thorough, creative, and efficient, with a remarkable knowledge of grammar and a zeal for its enforcement. Melissa is a pleasure to work with, and is a valuable asset to any project.” – Lori Glickman, Instructional Course Designer, National Transit Institute
