RECOMMENDATIONS

“Donna draws you in and inspires. Donna and I collaborate on technical sales and marketing brochures, social media, presentations, and publications promoting engineering and technical consulting services. She is able to take complex technical concepts which she then researches in-depth: her delivery is modern, on-trend with company message, and presents technical information in a way that encourages you to keep reading and wanting to know more. She is a delight in personality and a true team-player. She offers suggestions that make an important message extraordinary in its delivered form. Creative, inventive, motivating.”

– Jodie D’Andrea – Senior Director of Global Talent Acquisition and Talent at VEQTOR

“Donna has been a wonderful, loyal, freelancer, and friend. She is constantly on the hunt for story ideas for me (I edit a site called The Plum) and has embraced the mission of my publication as if it were her own. In addition to being a skilled reporter and writer, her infectious spirit makes her a complete joy to work with.”

– Didi Gluck, VP Editorial Content Leader at Manifest LLC
